It’s been a week since 32-year-old Viral Maisheri went mysteriously missing with her two children, Bhaviya (4) and Umang (7). The incident took place on May 3, when Viral went out with her sons, to give some cloths to the beggars, living near her resident in Manvel Pada, Virar (east) on the occasion of her sister’s (Rajul) death anniversary.

By late evening, when Viral and her children hadn’t returned, her father-in-law called up his son Bharat, and informed him that his wife and children were missing. Viral left home without her phone, so could not be contacted. Her husband tried to find her at every possible place, contacted her relatives and friends, but Viral was not found. “Everything is ok between me and my wife. We never had any big issues in our relation and the care and love I have given Viral, nobody can give her that,” said Bharat.
