Patna: The wife of
Bihar engineer Fasih Mehmood, who has been missing since he was
allegedly arrested in Saudi Arabia and deported to India, Tuesday
questioned the "silence" of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar over the
central government's failure to trace him.
"I fail to understand Nitish Kumar's silence on the issue and his
reluctance to give us an assurance of help to trace my husband,"
Nikhat Parveen told newspersons here after submitting a memorandum
to the state governor.
She said the chief minister should have raised the issue of her
husband, who is from Bihar. "It appears to me that he has no time
for this genuine issue."
Parveen said she would request the president, the prime minister
and the chief justice of the Supreme Court to help in tracing her
missing husband.
She said she had full faith in the apex court before which she
filed a plea in this regard.
The apex court earlier this month issued notice to the home and
external affairs ministries over the disappearance of Mehmood.
The 35-year-old engineer, who hails from a village in Darbhanga
district, was reportedly arrested in Saudi Arabia May 14 for
alleged terror links in India. But he ahs been untraced since
then.
