Missing engineer repatriated from Pak

Hansaben said that Bhavesh was depressed after the death of his father. He worked for a multinational company,and was denied leave after his father was diagnosed with cancer. Bhavesh quit his job. Two months later his father died.

After the death of my husband,I came to Vadodara,leaving Bhavesh in Mumbai. Neighbours alerted me that lights in our house had remained off for a few days. I returned to find that he had left home, she said.

She did not lodge a police complaint hoping he may have gone out in search of job and would return home. He was depressed and somehow strayed into Pakistan, she said.

In 2007,a few persons who had been lodged in Kot Lakhpat Jail,Lahore,returned to their native place in Jammu. Bhavesh,one of their co-inmates,had given them a piece of paper with the name of his Mumbai college written on it. They shared the information with a Punjab Kesari reporter who published the news. The CID found Bhaveshs house. The journalist helped me lot. I approached MP Priya Dutt who put the issue on fast-track, she said,adding that it was apparent Pakistani authorities didnt give him medical help and so he couldnt recollect his address.
