North Korean Consulate member missing
A newly appointed member of the North Korean Consulate, Jehang Shin, went missing on Thursday from the jurisdiction of the Darakshan police station. A police official on Friday confirmed receiving a letter from the consulate and testimony from Shin’s colleagues to this effect.

“We received a letter complaining of Shin’s disappearance from the consulate,” confirmed ASP Dr Mohammad Farooq Ahmed. He added, however, that so far police were viewing it as a missing person case and not a kidnapping. According to Shin’s colleague and statements in the letter,
"Shin took his luggage, said nothing to anyone, and left. We don’t know where he went and he hasn’t contacted us yet."
Shin left his apartment with his luggage and got in a taxi at around 7.30am on Thursday, said Ahmed. One of Shin’s colleagues, Lee, told police that Shin came to Karachi for the first time after applying for a job at the consulate, adding that he neither had relatives nor knew anyone here. “We just met him three days ago so we don’t know him that well. I think Shin was uncomfortable here. Shin took his luggage, said nothing to anyone, and left. We don’t know where he went and he hasn’t contacted us yet. He doesn’t even have a cell phone, so we contacted the police,” said Lee.
