Chhattisgarh Man Missing in Russia After Job Offer, Family Seeks Government HelpPreviousNext

Vineet Kumar Dubey, a 21-year-old from Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh, went to Russia on October 1 after being offered a job through a Telegram group. His sister, Aashi, reports he has been missing since October 6, following a voice message suggesting he was being taken somewhere and might be busy. Local police have contacted the Indian embassy and Ministry of External Affairs for assistance. The family alleges he was detained and pressured to join the war, but no official confirmation has been received.
