A 14-year-old boy, who went missing an year ago from his home in Shahbad Dairy in outer Delhi, was found in Jammu, police said today.
A case was registered in connection with the disappearance of the boy after a complaint by his father at Shahabad Dairy police station on August 28, 2015. The boy was rescued from Kajhali village by a team of Delhi Police's Crime Branch, Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime Branch) Ravindra Yadav said.
During investigation, it was found out that the boy's family had received a missed call from a mobile number of Jammu and Kashmir circle in August this year.
Following the clue, police gathered the subscriber's location and other relevant coordinates, he said.
