Indian's story: Missing people

(from The Times Of India - 22.02.2008)

Surprising statistics, yesterday, in the newspaper. They could write: "Mumbai, the town where you can be lost forever"
Apparantly, from the police record, every month, almost 1000 peoplego missing!
Of course, there are several explanations, and not because they don't find out the way to their home :-)
But still. it's a lot, isn't it?
So, few expanations about these misings: they are victims of organised gangs of traffikers, they are killed, or they may also be knocked down on the road by rush driving to end up as unclaimed bodies, ect...
In 2007, 11168 people were reported missing in the 84 police stations in Mumbai.
They add: one out of every five of these missing persons is lost forever.
This is scary.
