Recent cases of missing Indian Americans in the US have raised concerns. Mohammed Abdul Arfath, a 25-year-old student, was tragically found dead in Cleveland after being reported missing. Similarly, Neel Acharya, a Purdue University student, met a similar fate after being reported missing. These incidents echo the disappearance of a 25-year-old Indian-American woman in Texas last year, whose body was discovered in Oklahoma. The series of events has prompted a closer look at the safety and security of Indian Americans residing in the US. Authorities are investigating these cases to determine the circumstances surrounding these tragic losses.
