Man goes missing from outside IGI Airport

New Delhi: Charanjeet Singh, 22, went to Abu Dhabi to look for a job. On December 4, last year, he arrived at Indira Gandhi International Airport without informing his family — he wanted it to be a surprise visit.
He has been missing since.
The police, who have now registered a case, suspect Singh took a private taxi from outside the airport and was kidnapped.
Singh’s family was initially unaware of his arrival but they later learnt that he arrived at IGI Airport on a Gulf Air flight at 4 am on December 4, 2008.
According to the police, Singh’s family, in Amritsar district, came to know about his arrival 10 days after he landed at IGI when another relative, who also arrived from Abu Dhabi, went to their house after a death in the family. On Tuesday, Singh’s uncle Kuldeep Singh told Newsline over telephone: “He had not informed us of his visit since he wanted it to be a surprise. After other relatives told us, we called everyone we know in Delhi, as also in our village. We then went to the local police station and were asked to approach the Delhi Police.”
The officer said it has been confirmed that Singh boarded a Gulf Air flight from Abu Dhabi and landed at the Delhi airport on December 4. According to the family’s complaint, Singh was carrying Rs 20,000 cash along with his belongings.
