Bagai was last spotted on April 9 at about 11.30 am when he left a treatment centre near Milestone Plaza after which his family led a search party on Sunday and believed he may have been in Virginia or Washington DC, a News4 report said.
Bagai's family started their search at a local police station, going to several locations, including a shopping centre near where he was last seen and posted his image every few steps, hoping to generate a lead, the report said.

They were out there for three to four hours," Gobind Singh, Bagai's brother-in-law was quoted as saying.
According to family members, Bagai, a graduate of the University of Virginia, was prescribed several life-saving medications.
The cause of death has not been released yet. However, police said they do not suspect foul play, the report added.&nbsp;
