A resident of Bangalore has gone missing from a hotel here, police said on Sunday.
According to police, Abdul Shameem, 63, and his family had checked into the Rana International hotel in the Hazaratganj area on Friday.
The family had come here to visit the famous Dewa Sharif shrine in neighbouring Barabanki. After visiting the Sufi saint’s shrine, the family returned to the hotel on Saturday evening. While Shameem stayed back in the hotel room, his wife and other relatives went out to eat.
