Police have recovered the body of an Indian medical student named Adnan from a pond adjacent to the college, two days after he went missing from the hostel of Eastern Medical College in Comilla. He was a 5th-year student.
The deceased, Adnan, hailed from the Jammu and Kashmir area of India and was a student at the medical college.
Confirming the matter, Officer-in-Charge (OC) Lutfur Rahman of Burichong Police Station stated that locals spotted a floating body in the pond on Wednesday morning and informed the police. Later, college authorities and the deceased's mother arrived at the scene and identified the body as Adnan's.
The OC stated that Adnan arrived in Bangladesh with his mother on October 31. As he was somewhat inattentive to his studies, family members brought him to Bangladesh somewhat insistently. He went missing after leaving the college hostel on the night of November 2.
