Nalgonda Girl Student Missing in Boston
Sreeja had left her residence to attend a friend’s birthday celebration; no trace of her for last eight days
Warangal: Parents of a 23-year-old girl from Nalgonda district are desperately waiting for news of their only daughter, who has been missing in Boston, US, for the past eight days.
Sreeja, pursuing her master's degree in the United States, went missing after leaving her place of stay to attend a friend's birthday celebration.
Daughter of Koya Yadagiri Reddy and Roopa of Shabdullapuram village in Kanagal mandal of Nalgonda district, Sreeja was doing her course at University of Massachusetts, Boston. She was also working part-time.
On November 2, after completing her college and work commitments, Sreeja returned to her place of stay and later left the place to attend the birthday celebration. She reportedly informed her family that she would return shortly but did not come back.
The family said she spoke to her mother over the phone that day, which was her last communication with the family. Thereafter, her phone remained switched off. Her friends subsequently lodged a complaint with the local police there.
The family said, “The Boston police issued a missing-person alert on November 4 and launched a search. Search teams have been looking around the area where she was last seen, as well as the Carson Beach and the Harbour Point neighbourhood. Her whereabouts remain unknown.”
Her parents had been expecting her to complete her course and return to their native village in another six months. The sudden disappearance has left the family devastated.
Former MLA Kancharla Bhupal Reddy visited the family and facilitated a phone conversation with BRS working president KT Rama Rao. KTR assured the family of his support and offered to extend all possible assistance. Former minister Jagadish Reddy also spoke to the family over the phone and expressed his concern.
