According to the SDPO Surjit Kumar, the boy had obtained 78 per cent marks in his matriculation examination of Jharkhand Academic Council this year but he was ‘angry with himself’ for obtaining less than 80 per cent marks.
An Instagram log-in led the town police of Daltonganj to rescue and recover a 16-year-old boy who had left his parents and home in a great huff.
According to the SDPO Surjit Kumar, the boy had obtained 78 per cent marks in his matriculation examination of Jharkhand Academic Council this year but he was ‘angry with himself’ for obtaining less than 80 per cent marks.
Surjit Kumar said the boy walked out of his house and disappeared for days in sheer desperation.
The officer in charge of the town police station Daltonganj Abhay Kumar Sinha said this boy gone missing is from a locality under the town police station Daltonganj.
Sinha further said the episode is of the last week but details of his rescue and homecoming were wrapped in confidentiality.
“The family lodged a written complaint about the boy going missing. Our police took this case in all seriousness,” Sinha said.
SDPO Surjit Kumar said as the boy had not taken any of the family’s cell phones with him, the police had a tough time tracking him down. Police had a hunch that the boy would surely be in touch with his friends which proved right as he was in touch with his friend on Instagram.
“The boy was exchanging texts on Instagram which our police discovered. The boy was using someone else’s cell phone in Delhi with whom he was working on the platform in New Delhi railway station,” the SDPO said.
The boy was found working as an apprentice on platform number 8 at New Delhi railway station, helping goods and parcels off the railway parcel vans.
“We sent one of our Sub Inspector Santosh Kumar to Delhi where he took the help of the local police and jointly we found out the missing boy safe at New Delhi railway station,” police officer Sinha said.
The boy was brought home at Daltonganj. SDPO Surjit Kumar had a word of praise for the town police as he said he was monitoring this case and the technical cell of the police was making all efforts to find him out and the police finally got him.
