According to the officials, the incident took place on October 12. The teenager was later traced to a village in Satara, and was rescued on Sunday, October 15.
"Her 19-year-old boyfriend has been arrested," informed the police.
The girl was travelling alone by the local train from Badlapur to Vikhroli on October 12 when she went missing.
"Her family members then approached the Kalyan GRP, following which a case of kidnapping was registered," GRP's senior police inspector Arshuddin Sheikh said.
During the probe, the police got information that the girl's male friend had lured her and kidnapped her.
Later, the police made enquiries with the friends of both the girl and the man and got to know that the two were at Shendre village in Satara.
"A police team reached the village and spotted her standing on a road on Sunday. While the police were enquiring with her, the accused man came out of a house in the area and he was caught," the official said.
The police brought both of them here and handed them over to the Kalyan GRP where the case was registered, he said.
Meanwhile, the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) has foiled smuggling bids at Mumbai International Airport and seized 7 kg of cocaine worth Rs 70 crore by arresting four carriers, including two foreign nationals, in separate incidents, an official said.
