“The chief minister told me that probe in the matter is progressing,” Bindu, who submitted a petition stating that her daughter was missing and sought a probe, said.
Bindu, who hails from the city, said her 25-year old daughter Nimisha came along with her husband to her house on May 16 last and on May 18, she received a call from her daughter that she was going to Sri Lanka on some business.
“She did not reveal from where she was calling even though I asked her repeatedly,” Bindu said, adding, “I tried to prevent her from proceeding, but it failed.”
“I also used to get messages from her till June 4, but after that there was no information about her,” she said.
Bindu said her daughter Nimisha was a final year dental student in Kasaragod when she met and got married to a Christian youth, who later converted to Islam along with her.
Bindu also said that family did not know more details such as when she met her husband 32-year old Bexin, an MBA graduate, who also later converted to Islam.
They got married in November 2015, Bindu said.
Meanwhile, five more families in Kasargod, from where most of missing persons hails, filed petitions before the Chandra police and sought probe in the district on Sunday.
