Darpan News Desk Surrey RCMP, 16 Sep, 2022 09:39 AM

Burnaby RCMP is asking for the public’s assistance in locating 65-year-old Rajesh Verma. Rajesh was last seen by family in the 8800-block of Armstrong Avenue at 3:30 p.m. Thursday, September 15, 2022.

Rajesh is described as:

5’6” tall
South Asian
Balding with grey hair
Brown eyes

Rajesh was last seen wearing:

White long sleeve shirt
Black runners (with white soles)
Dark blue pants

It is out of character for Rajesh to not check in with family for this amount of time and they are very concerned.

Police are asking anyone who may have seen Rajesh or have information on his whereabouts to call the Burnaby RCMP. It they wish to remain anonymous, they can call Crime Stoppers.
