Bhubaneswar: The two school students of Odisha capital, who went missing yesterday, were today traced in Titilagarh area, reports said.

A team of the Chandaka police and some of the family members of the students were heading towards Titilagarh to bring the duo back to the city.

It is being alleged that the two minor boys were allegedly made unconscious and then kidnapped by eight masked miscreants on a truck while they were heading towards the school.

Later, they reportedly managed to escape from the clutches of the abductors and telephone their family members.

"After gaining consciousness, they called us to inform about their location. However, they were unable to identify/ name the kidnappers," said the father of one of the students.

Notably, the two students of a private school in Sundarpur area under Chandaka police limits in the city went missing at around 10 am on Tuesday, following which their kin lodged a complaint in this regard with the police.
