His body was found in the boot of his Toyota abandoned on a road leading to Oman.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"4\"\/>According to the family, Alwin last contacted them around July 20. Messages were subsequently sent from his phone stating he was unwell and resting. But, the family became suspicious as Alwin usually communicated through voice notes and rarely typed messages.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Victim\u2019s kin get death cert, but not FIR copy<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>When we questioned him and asked him to make a call, there was no response after that,\u201d Anil said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"11\"\/>The family contacted one of Alwin\u2019s classmates in Sharjah, who visited the apartment provided by his company. A watchman allegedly told him Alwin had left for India. The company\u2019s HR department initially informed the family he had travelled to India. However, after the family pointed out that he had not arrived, passport records were checked and reportedly showed he was still in UAE, he said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"14\"\/>A complaint was filed in Sharjah. The family was later informed a body had been recovered. According to Anil, Alwin\u2019s body was found on Aug 12. His identity was confirmed through DNA matching. The family received Alwin\u2019s death certificate, but is yet to obtain a copy of the FIR.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/>Alwin had been married to Tina Kunder for around 20 years. The couple have a son studying in class 10 in Dubai, while Tina worked as a schoolteacher there, according to the family.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"20\"\/>The family said they have been unable to contact Tina and their son. They claimed CCTV footage from the apartment showed two men and a woman moving luggage. However, they had no definitive information on whether Tina had been questioned by UAE police.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"22\"\/>\u201cWe cannot say anything conclusively without the FIR copy. Reports indicate they may have left for India on July 26 or 27,\u201d Anil said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/>Udupi SP Hariram Shankar said Alwin\u2019s brother had submitted a petition seeking assistance. \u201cUnless a letter rogatory, red-corner notice or any Interpol notice is issued against the accused, there is no legal measure to be taken by Udupi police at this point,\u201d he said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>Police are facilitating contact with Dubai consulate so the family can coordinate on the investigation. \u201cWe will seek information regarding the same through Interpol channels,\u201d the SP said.<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/city\/mangaluru\/body-in-9-pieces-left-for-india-unwell-messages-mystery-shrouds-karnataka-mans-death-in-uae-as-wife-son-remain-missing\/articleshow\/134449136.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anil Prashanth Kunder said his younger brother, Alwin Prakash Kunder, 51, was murdered in July.
