Missing KRIDL engineer traced to Mumbai after 40 days
After a 40‑day search, police located missing KRIDL engineer Mr. Parvez near Bandra railway station in Mumbai on October 22. The investigation spanned three states and involved coordinated efforts by local law enforcement agencies.

Mr. Parvez, a senior engineer with the Karnataka‑based firm KRIDL, was reported missing in early September, prompting a multi‑state search that quickly expanded beyond his home state. KRIDL, a company that supplies industrial equipment to power plants, confirmed his role but did not release details of his assignment. Family members described him as a devoted professional who had no known personal conflicts, raising concerns about his sudden disappearance.
Police teams from Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh joined forces with Mumbai detectives, conducting door‑to‑door inquiries, reviewing CCTV footage and tracking mobile phone pings. Authorities released periodic bulletins to keep the public informed and to solicit tips. The coordinated operation highlighted the challenges of tracking a missing adult across vast distances, especially when the individual’s movements were not documented in official travel logs.
On October 22, officers found Mr. Parvez resting near Bandra railway station, where he appeared disoriented but unharmed. He was taken to a nearby hospital for a medical check‑up and later reunited with his family. The case underscores the importance of inter‑state police collaboration and the need for companies to maintain robust travel safety protocols for employees who travel frequently across the country.
