"He didn´t pick up his mobile till 9 a.m.," said Pariyar´s wife Bishnu Maya, adding, "But his mobile was out of reach after 9 a.m."
According to Bishnu Maya, her husband didn´t reach the hospital to see his sister-in-law. Pariyar, who was also involved in land transaction for the past few months, had been running a tailor shop at his home.
Though it is assumed that he could have been abducted over the land issue, his wife, however, ruled out such possibility. Bishnu Maya said his husband had no dispute with anybody over the land issue.
Pariyar´s brother-in-law Ram Sewa said he saw Pariyar being taken towards Panchakanya VDC three days ago. "He [Sewa] said that he was heading to a meeting," Bishnu Maya said.
Meanwhile, the Pariyar family has lodged a complaint in the police about his missing. Police Inspector Durga Dahal said they have expedited search for Pariyar.
