Navi Mumbai: Vashi police successfully traced a 43-year-old man who left home around 9 years ago without informing anyone in his family for reasons that are still not clear.

The man identified as Mrugesh Tanaji who left home in 2014 was reunited with his family on Sunday. Tanaji reportedly spent all these years in different parts of the country without any contact with his family or friends, police said.

Family never gave up on him

According to police, during this period, his family did not lose hope and kept following up the progress in investigation.

The Vashi police checked for his whereabouts on various social media platforms, including Instagram and Facebook, and finally traced him to Mumbai’s western suburb Andheri.

Tanaji found in Reiki class centre

“On Sunday, the police went to a Reiki classes centre in Andheri and picked him up from there,” a police official from Vashi police station informed.

Tanaji was subsequently handed over to his family members, who thanked the police for their tireless efforts.
