The last image of Manideep Reddy Gujja that Finland police got was of him casually walking along the aisles of a shopping mall in Helsinki, about 100 kilometres from his residence in Lahti, on May 5. The 18-year-old has been missing ever since, and his parents have approached the Telangana High Court, seeking directions to authorities to trace their son. Originally from Hyderabad, Gujja was a student of the University of Lappeenranta-Lahti University of Technology (LUT) in Finland and regularly attended classes, his parents, Mamata Reddy and G Muthyam Reddy, said.“He never really socialised. His day began with college and ended at the living quarters, which he shared with his roommate,” Mamata said. On May 5, according to his parents, Gujja asked for Rs 5,000. “He called me to ask for this small amount of money, and I transferred it,” his mother said. Since then, using about Rs 2,500, he travelled for over 100 kilometres by bus and reached Helsinki, Finnish police found. The reason for the journey remains a mystery.
