Faridkot: A nursing student here kept the district police on their toes by concocting her own abduction just to "check their functioning".
However, the 20-year-old girl was recovered and handed over to her parents without any action initiated against her, a senior police official said today.
The girl, a student at Guru Gobind Singh Medical College and Hospital, here called up her friends and told them that she was kidnapped by two persons on Friday.
After her friends informed the local police, they swung into action to trace her.
The girl again called up her friends and informed them that the kidnappers had left her at Jalandhar bus stand.
Police moved to Jalandhar and picked her up from the bus stand and brought her to Faridkot late Friday night, police said.
When police asked her about kidnappers yesterday, the girl spilled the beans, saying she had concocted the story of her kidnapping.
"She said she wanted to see whether the police can recover her," Faridkot deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Vishaljit Singh said.
No action was taken against the girl, he said.
"We did not find any mala fide intention behind this incident and that is why we did not take any action against her," he further said.
The parents of the girl were called from Hoshiarpur to Faridkot and girl was handed over to them yesterday, he said.
