Lucknow: Madhya Pradesh lawyer Archana Tewari, who had been missing for the past 12 days, was found on Tuesday night near Palian Kala, a town in Uttar Pradesh’s Lakhimpur Kheri district on the Nepal border.
According to the police sources, a police team from MP, which traced Archana, took her to Bhopal on Wednesday.
Some reports claimed that she was recovered from Dhangadhi Airport in Nepal. Dhangarhi was situated on the Indo-Nepal border.
Archana went missing while on way to her home town of Katni in MP from Indore by Narmada Express train 12 days back. A massive search was launched to trace Archana, who was a practicing lawyer in the MP High Court and was preparing for judicial services examination.
Sources said that Archana’s location was revealed after she accessed her Instagram account. She also reportedly spoke to her mother and informed her about her location.
Archana’s last location was traced near Bhopal railway station. The investigations also revealed that her train ticket was booked by a cop who was posted in Gwalior in MP.
The cop was detained and quizzed by the police.
The police refused to divulge information about the investigations and said that her statement would be recorded after she reached Bhopal.
It was not clear how Archana reached Dhangarhi and whether any other person was also with him when she was found.
