A 33-year-old PhD student of Indira Gandhi National Open University, Mukul Jain, who went missing from JNU campus on Monday, returned to his house in Ghaizabad on Thursdayaround 12.30 p.m.

Police quoted him as saying that after a recent break up in friendship he felt depressed and went Patna to take holy dip in river Ganga.

Mukul reprotedly told his neighbors that his disappearance was his mistake. “He came home alone and was looking very weak. Even his eyes were pale. He knocked on the door of his house but after no one opened it, he came to our house and asked about well being of his mother and sister,”  Mukul’s neighbor Kusum.

Ashok, one of few friends Mukul had in neighborhood, told The Statesman that people were relating Mukul’s disappearance with Najeeb, who had also disappeared from JNU more than a year ago. As police had recovered Mukul’s wallet and phone from JNU’s lab it made some people suspect foul play play in his disappearance, he said.
