6 Year Old Deaf Boy United With Family After 4 Years
A 6 year old Deaf boy who was missing from home since 4 years has finally been found and united with family.
Four years ago, Brij Mohan’s 6-year-old Deaf son went missing from his home in Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh.Brij Mohan filed a missing person’s report and would visit government departments and media offices every day seeking help. The boy had gone missing in August 2019. SSP of Aligarh area, Kalanidhi Naithani directed the DSP Mohsin Khan to work on the case. He took it upon himself to trace the missing boy and get the distraught parents their child. Mohsin Khan said, “A report was lodged by Brij Mohan, a daily wager the day the child went missing. The boy is unable to speak, so finding him was a challenge. Various police records and information were collected, compared and matched.” “Pamphlets with the boy’s photograph were printed and distributed in neighbouring districts’ numerous police stations and inquiries were made across child shelter homes, orphanages, ashrams in various districts and in schools meant for specially-abled children.” DSP Khan added, “I made a list of observation homes in UP. I used to send the boy’s details to these homes in the morning and collect updates in the evening. A week ago, an official of the observation centre in Firozabad sent some photographs with birthmarks. The boy’s parents were informed and they confirmed his identity. The boy was then brought to Aligarh and handed over to them following medical tests. He is in good health”. Finally, the child Rohit, now 10, was found at the government’s children observation centre in Firozabad. Khan added, “The boy was actually brought to an orphanage in Aligarh by some passersby in August 2022, from where he was shifted to Firozabad. As part of our record, we are now trying to find out the boy’s whereabouts before August 2022.” Brij Mohan said, “There was not a single day when I didn’t miss my son. I used to visit police stations for information. I sought help from media offices too. I only hoped my son would be with me again”.
