Bangalore:
The missing case of 3-year-old boy Rehan Pasha still remains. The boy has been missing since the last eight days. No one seems to have a clue where he went, because the circumstances in which he went missing are suspicious.
First, it was suspected that he had drowned in a storm water drain, which is close to his house. The fire service also searched for the boy assuming the same, but their efforts were in vain.
A senior fire official said, "When no one has seen the boy falling into the drain, how one can guess that the boy has drowned into the storm water drain? It is very difficult for the fire force personnel to carry out the operations in drains, which are full of silt. Our efforts were in vain."
Later, the needle of suspicion pointed towards Rehan's step grandmother Noorjahan, because she had had a feud with the family, and had gone missing as well, and her mobile phone was switched off. The parents had alleged that she might have kidnapped their boy. The police have ruled out Noorjahan's involvement in the case, after questioning her.
They also questioned neighbours of the couple at Roopena Agrahara, but were unable to find any clues. Now the police have decided to distribute pamphlets in the area to get help from the public.
Madiwala PI M L Purusotham said, "We have questioned many persons including his relatives and neighbours but nothing is known so far and our hunt is still on."
