The Tripura Police contacted their Delhi counterparts after Chief Minister Manik Saha Saturday instructed them to trace a missing 19-year-old college student in the national capital, whose family originally hailed from the northeastern state.

A police official, who did not wish to be named, said that the Tripura Director General of Police (DGP) contacted the Special Commissioner of Delhi Police and requested him to take steps in this case.

The teenager, Sneha Debnath, a student of Mathematics at a college under Delhi University, went missing from the Wazirabad area in North Delhi on July 7. Her family lodged a missing complaint at the Mehrauli police station in Delhi on July 9.

According to sources, Sneha Debnath left her house to receive a friend at Sarai Rohilla railway station on July 7, and her phone was found switched off after some time. She didn’t take any belongings while leaving home and had not drawn any money from the ATM for the last few months.

Her father, Pritthis Debnath, had sought the Tripura chief minister’s help in tracing Sneha Debnath.
