An Indian Navy service member has been missing for over a week, sparking concerns and raising questions about the circumstances of his disappearance.
Sahil Verma, a sailor in the Indian Navy, vanished while on duty aboard a navy vessel on February 27. Despite efforts, there has been no trace of him since.
Demanding answers, Verma's parents have called for a CBI inquiry into their son's disappearance, expressing suspicions that foul play may be involved. They point out that their son was the only one from Jammu among the 400 personnel aboard the vessel.
The case has drawn attention due to the puzzling nature of Verma's disappearance from a navy vessel without a trace, compounded by the absence of evidence from CCTV cameras.
Expressing their dismay, Verma's parents have highlighted delays in informing them about the incident and the commencement of an inquiry board only after two days.
The lack of a search operation for their son has only added to their unease, leading to questions about the efficiency of Indian Navy's protocols and procedures.
