semester exams in the M.S. programme,” according to his uncle (Shekhar). The
youngster was living with two other Chinese students in a house in Raleigh.

that Karan was dejected after learning about the semester result. “Karan got a
job at HCL office in Mumbai soon after completing his engineering degree, but
he preferred to pursue higher studies and went to the U.S, He was supposed to
come to Hyderabad for a vacation. He spoke to us two to three days back”, his
father said (Shankar).
The
parents appealed to the government for help ensure their son’s body be brought
back to Hyderabad at the earliest.
