The Bangladeshi national, Md. Moslem Uddin (Samrat Monto Biswas), who reportedly entered into Andhra Pradesh ten years ago, was traced by his family members who hail from Pabna Sadar sub-district in Bangladesh.

Kin of Moslemuddin, who read the news published in The Hindu titled ‘Police station turns second home for Bangladesh citizen stuck in country’, along with his photograph on internet identified him.

The Nagayalanka police arrested the Bangladeshi citizen in 2013 under the Foreigners Act, 1946, while he was moving suspiciously in Nachugunta, a coastal village. The Avanigadda Court awarded him two years imprisonment. After completing his conviction, he was released in March 2015, and the Prisons Department personnel handed him over to Nagayalanka police.

Md. Moslem Uddin’s brothers and their sons contacted the Nagayalanka police station, in Krishna district, and confirmed that the person who was stuck in India, was their uncle, said Superintendent of Police Adnan Nayeem Asmi.

“We traced our uncle, Md. Moslem Uddin, after reading the news published in The Hindu. Hope he is fine. We are searching for him for the last ten years. Thanks to The Hindu management for highlighting the issue,” said his nephew, Md. Tahsin Alam.

The Bangladeshi citizen has completed his schooling at Kacharpur village, B.A (Hons) in N.A. College, Pabna district, Bangladesh in 2012. He was missing from 2013, said his family members. They urged the Indian and Bangladesh governments to make arrangements to send him back.

“Nagayalanka CI, P. Venkata Trinadh and SI, M. Subramanyam, uploaded the photographs of Md. Moslem Uddin, on various social media groups, and his classmates have identified and responded,” Eluru Range Inspector General of Police (IGP), G.V.G. Ashok Kumar, who was making efforts to repatriate the Bangladesh citizen told The Hindu on Monday.
