Some time later he found out that they had been kidnapped by one Mohammed Munna Ashik alias Munna s/o Mohammed Ashik Mia. But despite approaching top police officials and even the Delhi CM, his family could not be located and he returned to Oman.
All these years, he kept making attempts to locate them, and finally learnt that his family was being kept in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand by Md. Munna. He alleges that they have been converted to Islam, and his wife is being raped by the accused. They are now too frightened or hopeless to even attempt to escape. He also alleges that cash and other assets held jointly by him and his wife has been siphoned off by Mohammed Munna.
In desperation, Binod has now made a public video appeal to rescue his family-
Binod has also appealed to the Commissioner of Police, New Delhi through the PMO (Prime Minister’s Office) –
Binod says that he has been threatened by Md. Munna never to return to Bharat, else he will be killed. But he is planning to return to Bharat for one final attempt to rescue his family and be reunited with them after 7 long years.

Terrifying. How can such a thing happen? This kind of kidnapping, of an entire family, must be looked into by the PMO. We hear of all kinds of small incidents related to other groups, but when a Hindu family is kidnapped, everyone is silent, including the media.
This sort terrifying news does not appear in Indian media.
He should file a Habeas Corpus petition under article 32 in the Supreme Court of India.That should deliver some tangible relief.
