Hello,
As regard to the kidnaping there is section 363 IPC.
But Indian panel code also make attemt for any offence as an offence under section 511 IPC and i must say this is very important section otherwise it will turn in vain the entire structure of code, jurisprudence and panelisation.
511. Punishment for attempting to commit offences punishable with imprisonment for life or other imprisonment.
Whoever attempts to commit an offence punishable by this Code with {Subs.by Act 26 of 1955, s.117 and Sch., for "transportation"} [imprisonment for life] or imprisonment, or to cause such an offence to be committed, and in such attempt does any act towards the commission of the offence, shall, where no express provision is made by this Code for the punishment of such attempt, be punished with {Subs., ibid., for certain words} [imprisonment of any description provided for the offence, for a term which may extend to one-half of the imprisonment for life or, as the case may be, one-half of the longest term of imprisonment provided for that offence], or with such fine as is provided for the offence, or with both.
Illustrations
(a) A makes an attempt to steal some jewels by breaking open a box, and finds after so opening the box, that there is no jewel in it.He has done an act towards the commission of theft, and therefore is guilty under this section.
(b) A makes an attempt to pick the pocket of Z by thrusting his hand into Z's pocket.A fails in the attempt in consequence of Z's having nothing in his pocket.A is guilty under this section.
