A 29-year-old Bengaluru software engineer has been missing since last Monday after he had gone to meet a prospective buyer of his car that he had listed on an online marketplace, PTI has reported.
Kumar Ajitabh, who hails from Patna and works at British Telecom, had listed his Maruti Suzuki Ciaz on OLX and had gone out on December 18 around 6.30 pm after he received a call from a prospective buyer, his friends said. But Ajitabh never returned and his car has also not been traced. Ajitabh’s friends suspect foul play by the person who called him on Monday.
PTI has quoted police as saying that Ajitabh’s WhatsApp was active till 7.10 pm on Monday after which his phone was switched off. His last location was traced at Gunjur near Whitefield on the outskirts of the city. The police are analyzing CCTV footage from the area and nearby toll plazas as well.
Meanwhile, the engineer’s family and friends have started a social media campaign with hashtag #FindAjitabh. Ajitabh’s father has uploaded a detailed information regarding his son and asked people to pass on the information. The report mentions Ajitabh as being of fair complexion and medium build. Ajitabh was wearing black jeans and a green check shirt, the report says. Most of the techie’s friends have requested Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah to take up the matter.
