A 5-year-old boy allegedly kidnapped from his home in Chattogram's Patiya has been found dead, with police detaining three neighbours over the incident.

The child's body was recovered from a pond beside a neighbour's house in Dakshin Gobindarkhil village of the municipality early on Thursday, hours after a ransom note demanding Tk 300,000 was discovered.
