The family is seeking answers and justice, questioning the circumstances surrounding Anas's death, which occurred between March 10th and March 16th. The family recounts how the police informed them about the body, packed in black polythene, suggesting it was ready for post-mortem.

Family's Plea for Justice and Investigation

They recall identifying a photo, but question if it was actually Anas. The family describes their efforts to find Anas, including providing photos to authorities. They feel dismissed and unheard by the police, who initially told them to take the body away without proper investigation.
Tracing Anas's Last Known Locations
The investigation team visited Shaheed Nagar and Nizamuddin, the last known location where Anas Qureshi was seen on CCTV. The report promises to reveal the inside story, focusing on the family's doubts and the perceived lack of satisfaction with the police's role. The reporter contrasts studio debates with on-the-ground truth-seeking.
The Night of March 10th: Anas's Last Movements
On March 10th, Anas visited his brother-in-law at the hospital around 8:20 PM after prayers. He spoke on the phone for about half an hour. Around 10:29 PM, Anas was supposed to supply bananas to a vendor. He received ₹1000 as an advance. The vendor confirms giving Anas the money and receiving a message confirming the transaction.
The Frantic Search and Police Response
The family recounts their desperate search for Anas, expressing frustration with the police's lack of assistance. They mention being told conflicting information, including a claim that Anas was in Jaijpur. The family describes finding Anas's scooter but not Anas himself. They organized a large search party, combing through the area, including a stadium and roadside areas.
The Grueling Search and Discovery of the Body
On the night of March 10th, the family searched extensively from Shaheed Nagar to Farkh Nagar bypass, leaving no stone unturned. They express frustration with the police's repeated assurances of Anas's safety, which contrasted sharply with his eventual discovery in a bag. The family recounts how they were led to believe Anas was safe before being informed of the body.
Inconsistencies and Doubts Regarding the Body
The family questions the circumstances of the body's discovery, including the lack of witnesses when the car arrived to take it away. They describe searching in a jungle area with police present but not actively involved in the search. The family expresses confusion and disbelief, especially after being shown CCTV footage that contradicted their understanding of events. They felt the police were trying to mislead them into believing Anas left on his own accord.
Financial Transactions and Contradictory Statements
The report highlights a financial transaction where Anas transferred ₹13,700 to an account around 2 AM on March 13th. The family questions the nature of this transaction and the account involved. They also point out inconsistencies in the police's statements, such as showing them clothes that Anas wasn't wearing when he disappeared. The family was informed about a dead body in Muradnagar, but they didn't stay there.
Questionable Identification and Police Handling

The Sealed Pack and Unanswered Questions
The family recounts the moment they were shown the body in a sealed pack, emphasizing the emotional impact. They question how documents found with the body, including a passport-sized photograph and laminated Aadhar card, remained intact despite the body being submerged in water. The family was not allowed to open the sealed pack and felt the police were rushing the process.
Unanswered Questions and Call for Justice
The report highlights the family's confusion about the origin and movement of the body, questioning the police's narrative. They emphasize the contradiction between the police's initial assurances of Anas's safety and the subsequent discovery of his body. The family disputes the police's claim that marks on the body were not present, suggesting they may have disappeared due to decomposition. They express their inability to forgive the situation and the police's handling of the case.
Demands for Transparency and DNA Testing

They express disappointment with the police's lack of progress and perceived indifference.
Family's Distrust and Call for Public Support
