      <title>Katcha bandits kidnap 8 including woman using marriage as bait</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330381043/katcha-bandits-kidnap-8-including-woman-using-marriage-as-bait</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Eight people, including four women, have been kidnapped by bandits in Shikarpur, Pakistan, after being lured with a fake marriage proposal.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The victims, who are residents of Sukkur’s Micro Colony, were invited to the remote “katcha area” of Napur Kot under the pretense of meeting a potential bride. However, upon arrival, they were kidnapped by the outlaws.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Police officials believe the bandits used the marriage proposal as a deceptive tactic to lure the victims to a secluded location where they could be easily captured.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This incident comes just weeks after a  attack in Rahim Yar Khan, where 12 police officers were killed and seven others injured in an ambush by dacoits.&lt;/p&gt;
