One of our collogues Zulfi is missing in Kenya since three months. He was on holiday till July 21st He indeed stopped replying to our WhatsApp dispatches. The Ministry of External Affairs is saying they're in touch with Kenyan authorities but have no update yet. Some news reports suggest that his identity may have been confused with someone differently with the same name. This is veritably scary. Please my solicitation so that the Government of India launches a hunt operation for him at the foremost.
An appeal to Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi to intermediate with the Government of Kenya and bring back Zulfi home safe. Zulfiqar Ahmad Khan, Zulfi, is an alumnus of Hansraj College New Delhi and St Joseph School Nainital. He's 48 times old and has an outstanding media career- he last worked as the Susurrus of Balaji Telefilms. Prior to that, he was also the Managing Director of the OTT platform HOOQ and the Business Head and Chief Revenue Officer of Eros Now.
Zulfi started his media career as a Trainee with Star India and grew to be an elderly Vice President of Advertising Deals where he managed several channels like Star Plus, Star Gold, Star Sports, National Geographic, Chanel V etc. Zulfi has been a keen sportswoman, a savorer, an avaricious rubberneck, rambler and discoverer. His passion for justice is well-known to us all – every run, every ball, every pitch is bandied threadbare by Zulfi with supporter willing to hear. The rubberneck that he is, Zulfi doesn’t just visit a country or a place – but spends weeks exploring the area, soaking himself into its history and culture. Last time he travelled deep into Kashmir and Ladakh and spent over a month camping and touring with musketeers. Visits to his native near Jaunpur were a treat for all his supporters, because his Instagram and Facebook posts would regale us all with amazing stories the biographies he'd of the place.
His trip to Kenya was yet again the discoverer in Zulfi wanting to witness a newcountry. We enjoyed watching his social media posts of breath- taking Masai Mara and all the amazingfood he was partaking of. In his telephone exchanges with musketeers, he said he was returning on July- 24th but planned to be back towards the time-end to substantiation the Great Migration across the Mara River. But after July- 21st, there was complete silence. No Facebook or Instagram updates, no phone calls, and what bothered all his musketeers the most – our WhatsApp weren’t showing as entered.
He'd spoken to some of his 2 months before talked about wildlife at length and advised them to visit this" lovely" place. And also Zulfi just faded. Without a trace. No contact with family or musketeers.
It’s been nearly 90 days now and yet no bone has any idea about his whereabouts. The Police in Kenya are oblivious. They've been asked by the High Court of the land to produce Zulfi but they've no idea where he is. There are scattershot reports in the Kenyan media where they picked up the wrong LinkedIn profile of another Zulfiqar Ahmed Khan and called our Zulfi a “ cyber security expert. ” Which would be funny if it weren’t scary - utmost of the information on him in their media is fully unwarranted and without any proper exploration.
The Ministry of External Affairs states that a police complaint has been filed in Kenya and that the issue is sub-judice in the High Court of Kenya. They add that the Indian High Commission has been in touch with Kenyan authorities. Besides this they don’t really have an update for him.
With this note, we want to make people apprehensive about who Zulfi really is, question his exposure, and maintain with our Honorable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi to intermediate and ask the concerned Government of Kenya to start a hunt operation to get our Zulfi back home safe!
It breaks our hearts to know that so numerous months have passed and no believable sweats have been done to find him. However, the government could hear and help us find Zulfi.
