A family is consumed by worry as the search intensifies for Aryan Sharma, a 20-year-old student who vanished eleven days ago. Police have released haunting CCTV footage showing Aryan running down a road in the early hours of November 23rd, near Loughborough, Leicestershire – the last confirmed sighting of the young man.
The footage offers a chilling glimpse into the mystery surrounding his disappearance. Aryan is seen wearing a long black trench coat, a stark contrast to the shorts and black trainers with white trim he was last known to be wearing. The image fuels desperate hope and mounting anxiety for those who love him.
“We are devastated as a family,” shared Aryan’s cousin, Jagi Sawhney, his voice thick with emotion. “We just want to find him safe. He’s loved by this family – an older brother, a cousin, one of five boys.” The family’s anguish is palpable, amplified by the recent cold weather and the agonizing silence.
Days have passed with no contact, a terrifying break in communication that has deepened their fears. “Our biggest concern now is that no one in the family has spoken to him since at least Friday,” Sawhney explained. “We just want him to be okay, and we want him to come home to his mum.”
A heartfelt plea has been issued directly to Aryan: “If you see this, we want you to know how loved you are. We want you to know how much we all just want you to come home.” He is remembered as a cherished grandson, son, and uncle, and the entire family is united in their search.
Detectives are urgently appealing for any information, no matter how small. Investigators are specifically seeking anyone who may have seen a man matching Aryan’s description walking along Meadow Lane, Stanford Lane, or the surrounding areas between 12:15 am and 2:00 am on Saturday morning.
An extensive search operation is underway, utilizing every resource available. Trained search officers, drones, police dogs, divers, and specialist volunteers from Leicestershire Search and Rescue are tirelessly combing the area, driven by the hope of bringing Aryan home.
Aryan is described as Asian, 5ft 5ins tall, of a slim build, with collar-length black hair. Anyone with information is urged to come forward, potentially holding the key to unraveling this increasingly desperate mystery.
The investigation continues, fueled by the unwavering hope of a family and the dedication of law enforcement, as they race against time to locate Aryan Sharma and bring him back to safety.
