A 12-year-old boy, identified as Mohammad Habibullah Naim, has gone missing from Dhaka’s Khilkhet area, prompting a police search.

Naim left his family’s rented home in Kurmitola School Road at about 5:15 p.m. on Thursday after being scolded following a dispute with his six-year-old brother Adil, relatives said.

His mother, Sharifa Khatun, filed a general diary with Khilkhet police after family members failed to find him. His mobile phone was also switched off.

According to an application to law enforcement, an unknown caller later claimed Naim was being held and that he was crying and had been assaulted. The caller said he was in the Haji Bari Camp area before ending the call.

Khilkhet police said they were working to locate him.
