Faridabad, January 15
 A resident of Bahin village of the Hathin sub-division in the district has been missing for the last three months. However, the police have failed to trace him yet despite a complaint lodged with them.

According to Mrs Ramvati, mother of the victim, her son, Ram, went to his in-laws house about three months ago, but had not returned since then. She suspected that her son, who was married to a girl of the Housing Board colony, had developed strained relations with his wife after she accused him and the family of dowry harassment.

Mrs Ramvati said while they had returned the dowry items brought by her in marriage, the in-laws of her son had called him to their house three months ago in connection with some work. She suspected that her son could have been murdered. The district police chief has reportedly asked the DSP, Palwal to conduct a probe into the matter.
