New Delhi[ibnlive]: A 28-year-old woman who went missing six months ago and was later declared dead mysteriously resurfaced on Friday when she called her parents from Pune and asked them to rescue her.
“Meghna called us up at 4 pm and said, ‘Daddy, I’m in Pune. Please come and take me back home. I’m in trouble.’ When we asked her where she was, she said she was calling from a local phone booth in Pune,” Meghna’s mother, Anjali Subhedar, said.
Meghna’s doctor parents asked her to go to a relative’s house in Pune while her father made arrangements to go to the city and bring her.
But the Meghna that reached her relative’s house was unrecognisable.
“She came here round 5 pm and asked me if I recognised her. She was in a really bad state. He clothes were shabby and her condition was like that of a beggar,” Vinayak Ramkrishna Karker, Meghna’s uncle, who lives in Pune, said.
Meghna, a Bangalore-based software professional, went missing on April 11. She had reportedly called her parents in Korba in Chhatisgarh and informed them that she would be boarding the Gitanjali Express for her hometown the same day.
However, when she did not reach home, her parents filed a missing persons complaint with the Government Railway Police station.
Two months later, her father registered a murder case after a decomposed body of a woman was found on Goa’s Candolim beach on June 25, but subsequent DNA tests revealed that the body was that of another individual.
Nobody knows what happened to Meghna in the last six months. The police tried to record her statement, but she’s won’t speak.
Her family is just happy that the daughter they thought they had lost has returned home.
