COLLECTED<br />
Ishrak Ahmed, 20, a student<br />
at McGill University, Canada<br />
allegedly went missing from<br />
Dhaka’s Dhanmondi area<br />
three days ago.<br />
Ishrak was last seen near<br />
Star Kabab at Dhanmondi road<br />
no 15 around 8:<strong>30</strong>pm on Saturday,<br />
according to police and<br />
family.<br />
His father Jamaluddin<br />
Ahmed on Sunday lodged a<br />
general diary (GD) over his<br />
disappearance with the Dhanmondi<br />
police station, confirmed<br />
its Officer-in-Charge<br />
(OC) Abdul Latif.<br />
“Ishrak came to Dhaka<br />
on vacation in June. On the<br />
evening of <strong>August</strong> 26, he was<br />
with his friends in front of<br />
Eden Multi-care Hospital next<br />
to Star Kabab. In the CCTV<br />
video footage we collected, we<br />
saw Ishrak and his friend leave<br />
Star Kabab around 8:<strong>30</strong>pm. He<br />
then came back and left again<br />
towards Eden and then returned<br />
again to Star Kabab and<br />
then disappeared into the camera’s<br />
blind spot. There was no<br />
sign of him after that,” he said.<br />
The OC said police were<br />
also looking into possible ties<br />
to any militant or extremist<br />
group.<br />
He also said they tried to locate<br />
Ishrak through his mobile<br />
phone signal but it is currently<br />
turned off: “We also questioned<br />
his friends but they<br />
were unable to shed any light<br />
on his disappearance either.”<br />
The family also has not received<br />
any calls for ransom,<br />
police said.<br />
According to the GD his father<br />
filed, Ishrak, the eldest<br />
child of his parents, was wearing<br />
a pair of blue jeans and a<br />
blue shirt when he was last<br />
seen in public.<br />
His father, Jamaluddin told<br />
the Bangla Tribune: “We don’t<br />
know what happened to him.<br />
Our house is only minutes<br />
away from the place where he<br />
was last seen. We’re confused<br />
and scared.” •<br />
