Motihari, June 27: A school boy, who was feared abducted on Saturday, was found in Delhi today under mysterious circumstances.

Pujesh Kumar (12), a Class IV student of DAV school, who went missing last Saturday afternoon and was suspected to have been kidnapped from his Kuwari Devi Chowk (off Nakchhed Tola) residence, was recovered at Delhi today, said the police today.

The father of the boy who is the Primary Agriculture Co-operative Society (PACS) chairman from Siswa East panchayat, Suresh Yadav, had filed an informatory petition in that regard without accusing anyone with the Town police station yesterday.

The PACS chairman, who had, however, declined to divulge the names of the persons whose involvement he suspected in the abduction, before the police in case his son failed to return in a day or two.

But he believed that his son might have been kidnapped owing to professional rivalry or politics.

The inspector-cum-station house officer of the Town police station, Anant Kumar Singh, said: “The father of the boy informed the police around 11 this morning that one of his relatives had recovered Pujesh in the national capital and apprised him of the same.”

The station house officer, however, expressed ignorance on how the boy was recovered there.

Singh added that it was Suresh himself informed the police about the safe recovery of his son from Delhi.

Thereafter, the police construed that the schoolboy had fled home possibly owing to some domestic reason, instead of being kidnapped as earlier assumed.

Yesterday, the police were at a loss to plan how to recover the missing boy in the absence of any definite suspicion towards any person in particular.

The deputy superintendent of police (Sadar), Sushant Kumar Saroj, confirmed that the boy had been recovered from Delhi.

Meanwhile, when contacted, Pujesh’s father confirmed the safe recovery of his son from Delhi.

However, he was unable to say whether his son was abducted or taken away by someone to Delhi.

Yadav told The Telegraph: “After we received information about Pujesh’s recovery on the phone from Delhi today, my brother, Vijay Prasad Yadav, and a relative, Arvind Kumar, already left for Delhi to bring him back home.”
