In a bizarre incident, a 43-year-old Gujarat man from Naroda, who went missing two weeks ago and was presumed dead by his family, walked into his own memorial service surprising everyone present.

Brijesh Suthar’s family, who had filed a police complaint for the missing, were shattered when the police called them after finding a decomposed and swollen body under the Sabarmati bridge. The family identified the body to be that of Brijesh’s and cremated it.

Then, Brijesh walked into his own Memorial Service the family organised in Vijapur on November 14.

He was upset over losing money on the stock market and had left without informing anyone.

Meanwhile, the Naroda police have reopened the case to investigate how the mix-up happened.
