The accused were identified as Balwan, 27, Mukesh Meena, 40, and Hardas, 38, according to police.
On Friday, the three took the student and his family members to Gurugram and asked for the money, at which point the student's family asked them to show the paper. When they refused, they contacted the SOG, which apprehended the three on Saturday.
