An Income Tax officer from the City was reported missing since October 13 and a search is on to trace him.
In his complaint, Shivakumar’s father, Senbagaraman (a retired IPS officer) said that his 37-year-old son had not returned after he left his house at Peelamedu around 6 p.m. on that day. Police are investigating whether Shivakumar had gone to his relative’s house or he had been kidnapped by someone.
Two special teams have been formed to trace the missing official.
