Mangaluru, Feb 6: The two girl students of city based private college, who had gone missing and later traced in Kerala, have now returned their respective homes safely.

tracedA team from Mangaluru North Police Station had been to Kerala on February 4 after Jacqueline D'Sa and Smriti, residents of Chilimbi and Suratkal respectively contacted one of their relatives and informed their whereabouts.

With moral policing cases on the rise in Mangaluru, there were several theories about the girls doing the rounds - from a love affair going sour, abduction to poor academic performance.

Police, however, said they ran away as they were “unhappy with whatever they had in life”, and wanted to lead a better life on their own. They were found near the railway station at Shoranur in Palakkad district.

Both Jaqueline and Smrithi, first year commerce students of St Aloysius College here went missing since February 1 and a missing persons case was registered in the City North Police station.

According to Police, on Thursday morning at around 9:30am one of the girl called her uncle on his mobile and informed that they were in Shoranur, Kerala and they wanted to return home. Immediately the girl's uncle informed the police, and the police acted swiftly and informed the railway police to take them to their custody.

Expressing happiness over girls return, Fr Melwin Mendonca, Principal of St Aloysius College said that they will offer counselling to both students.

It could be recalled here that Ahmed Nisar, a PU student from another private college was allegedly tortured by the CCB police in Mangaluru after the mysterious disappearance of the girls. The police had accused Nisar of abducting the girl. However, after one of the girls caller her uncle, the police decided to release Nisar.
