Shillong, July 29: A missing YouTuber from Kerala was found in Pynursla, East Khasi Hills, on Wednesday morning.
He has not been traceable for the last four days.
According to the police, on Wednesday morning, information was received that Mohammed Dilshad from Malappuram, Kerala went missing.
He runs a travel vlog called Yatra Today.
Though media reports had claimed he went missing either in West Bengal or Assam, Dilshad was in Meghalaya for the last 5 days, according to the police.
A senior police official said he was last seen at Pynursla. Search was conducted, and the police found his motorbike (KL65T6565) in an abandoned condition at Dopphrap, Pynursla -Mawlynnong road.
After examination, police said the bike met with an accident, and Dilshad was taken to the nearby community health centre ( CHC).
He was under medical treatment at the emergency room of the CHC.
Dilshad, who was in a stable condition, told the police that the accident took place after he tried to negotiate a sharp turning.
A vehicle came from the opposite direction, and he lost control of the bike, which went off the road and stopped in the forest area.
“A passerby took him to the hospital. The incident took place around 10:30 am. The friends of the injured person have appeared at the police station and took him back”, the official said.
Police added that while Dilshad proceeded to Pynursla on his bike, his friends had travelled to Sohra (Cherrapunji). His friends came from Sohra and returned with Dilshad.
Police are probing why there has been no communication from Dilshad to his family members in Kerala.
Though connectivity may be a reason, he could have sought the help of locals
to communicate with the family, as he was here for the last 5 days, sources said.
Media reports had said he left Kerala on July 6, and the last contact was on July 22, forcing the family to lodge a complaint.
