A college student from the town of Erumeli in Pathanamthitta, she was only 20 years old when she disappeared after leaving her house to go to her aunt’s place.
On the fateful day of March 22 that year, she left her house in Vechoochira, near Erumeli, to go to her aunt’s place in Mundakayam, Kottayam.
Two years into the probe, Pathanamthitta police chief KG Simon and later the Crime Branch ADGP of the time, Tomin Thachankary, reportedly gave the impression that there was some news about Jesna and she’d soon be found.
A report in The New Indian Express says that the CBI is issuing an Interpol Yellow notice , on the chances that Jesna might have left the country.
