Police recovered the body of an Indian medical student named Adnan two days after he went missing from the hostel of Eastern Medical College in Cumilla. On Wednesday morning (November 4), his body was recovered from a pond adjacent to the college. Adnan was a fifth-year student of the college.
The deceased Adnan’s home was in Jammu and Kashmir, India.
Confirming the matter, Burichang Police Station OC (Officer-in-Charge) Lutfor Rahman said that on Wednesday morning, locals spotted a body floating in the pond next to the college and informed the police. Later, college authorities and the deceased’s mother went to the spot and identified the body as Adnan’s.
The OC stated that on October 31, Adnan arrived in Bangladesh with his mother. As he had been somewhat inattentive in his studies, family members brought him to Bangladesh somewhat forcibly. After leaving the college hostel on the night of November 2, he went missing. In connection with this incident, college authorities and his mother filed a general diary (GD) at Burichang Police Station on Tuesday. Police then reviewed CCTV footage from various locations in an attempt to locate him. In the meantime, on Wednesday morning, his body was found floating in the pond adjacent to the college. Upon receiving the information, police went to the spot and recovered the body. The circumstances of the death will become clearer once the post-mortem report is received.
