Having been informed by some commuters, I went up to him and asked about him. He was prowling the railway platform with a placard. I checked his passport and visa and found the paperwork to be fine, he said, GRP inspector Jayadev Biswajit.
He wasn’t fluent in English, so I couldn’t gather many details from him.
I was contacted by GRP. Puri SP Kanwar Vishal Singh said he provided immediate assistance.
Police are now looking for him.
Police had no reason to suspect wrongdoing in connection with his disappearance at that time because the Rayagada incident happened afterward, a senior railway police official told PTI.
