The Great Sardar Kidnap

A Sardar was down on his luck. In order to raise some money, he decided to kidnap a kid and hold him for ransom.
-
He went to the playground, grabbed a kid, took him behind a tree, and told him, "I've kidnapped you."
-
He then wrote a note saying, "I've kidnapped your kid. Tomorrow morning, put 2 lakhs in cash in a paper bag and put it under the pecan tree next to the slide on the north side of the playground. Signed, A Sardar."
-
The Sardar then pinned the note to the kid's shirt and sent him home to show it to his parents.
-
The next morning the Sardar checked, and sure enough, a paper bag was sitting beneath the pecan tree.
-
He opened the bag and found the exact amount of money as demanded with a note that said, "How could you do this to a fellow Sardar?"
