> A criminal gang operating in India kidnapped and tortured cryptocurrency traders in recent weeks before demanding 80 bitcoins as ransom, police say. Three men had been held captive for 15 days inside a high-rise building and were beaten or tortured... Not even their family members were aware of the abduction. The victims had lost all hope because they had no access to anyone
