Click to play videoAhmedabad: Gujarat Police are baffled about the whereabouts of an Iraqi woman who went missing in the city a month ago.
The woman named Huma Younis Fadhil came to the Gujarat Cancer and Research Institute (GCRI) for a research study programme, but went untraceable after reaching Ahmedabad city.
On August 20, Huma e-mailed the GCRI saying she is a teaching assistant at the College of Science, Baghdad University. She requested for research study in virus diagnostics for not more than six months as her husband, too, was on a study course in India.
On September 9, the GCRI approved her admission. Huma arrived in Ahmedabad on November 15 and visited GCRI on November 16.
"She probably might have acquired a visa based on our letter. The institute asked her to complete the necessary formalities, which she did not do. We sent her a mail, asking her to pay the fees or the admission will be cancelled." said Director of GCRI Dr Pankaj Shah.
But there is no record of Huma's arrival at the airport immigration counter in Ahmedabad.
Incidentally, last week, the immigration office had asked the police to register a case of bribery against two police personnel posted at the airport counter.
