When she called Chittaranjan’s friends at around 12 am asking about Chittaranjan as she wanted to go home, they told her not to worry and said that they would drop him off at home. However, Chittaranjan did not return home. She again called his friends, but they did not answer her phone calls. Since that day, he has been missing.
