AGARTALA, Nov 30 (TIWN): As the four Tripura Gramin Bank officials kidnapped last week have yet remained untraced even as their car and a motorcycle have been found, the bank officials came in mass protest at Agartala.

A massive silent march was conducted demanding immediate rescue of the bank officials who were working in Taidu Gramin Bank. 
Tripura State Rifles and other security forces meanwhile continued to search for the abducted officials in Khowai, Dhalai, and Gomati districts, Gomati District Superintendent of Police Bijoy Debbarma told TIWN. 
Director General of Police Akhil Kumar Shukla and other senior officials are supervising the manhunt. 

Taidu Branch Manager Tanumoy Bhattacharjee, 30, Sujit Chandra Dey, 28, and Raktim Bhowmik, 31, were abducted on Friday night by armed miscreants while returning by car to Agartala through Teliamura. Subrata Debbarma, 32, was riding a motorcycle when he was abducted.

Families of the officials said an unidentified person called up and demanded Rs 20 lakh each for the release of the bank staff.
