The missing Executive Director designate of Indian Oil Corporation Kaushik Bora was found today near a jungle inside the complex of an oil well near Digboi in Upper Assam, police said.

Tinsukia Additional Superintendent of Police Lamhao Dongol said Bora was spotted this afternoon within just one kilometre from where his car was found last evening.

“Bora was perfectly fine and was found towards the jungle side within the oil well compound in the area. It is not a case of kidnapping. What we could gather from our investigation is that he is suffering from depression and he went himself,” Dongol said.

He said Bora’s wife had informed that he was taken to Apollo Hospital in New Delhi earlier this month.

Bora, who was to be promoted to the post of Executive Director of the Digboi Refinery of IOC, left his home yesterday in the afternoon for work but no news of him was received till evening.

His car was found from Digboi-Pengeri road near an oil well.
