The Forest department and the police continued their search for a watcher who has gone missing in the Silent Valley National Park. The search team returned empty-handed on Thursday.
Rajan Pulikkanchery, 51, a temporary watcher at Silent Valley, went missing at Sairandhiri while being on duty on Tuesday night. He was on a 10-day duty and had completed eight days. He had gone to his quarters near the watch tower after dinner.
His torch, chappals, and dhoti were found a few yards away from his camp shed. Some marks of a struggle were seen on the grass from where his dhoti was recovered.
