The remains of Ayush Dankhara, a 23-year-old individual hailing from Bhavnagar, Gujarat, and pursuing studies in Toronto, Canada, are expected to arrive at Ahmedabad international airport on Saturday evening.
Ayush, son of Ramesh Dankhara, a DSP with the Gujarat Police, is the second student from Gujarat studying at York University, Toronto, to have tragically lost his life in suspicious circumstances within a month.
According to his uncle, “He resided in a shared apartment on Lawrence Avenue West in Toronto. On May 6, his roommate informed my brother that Ayush had not returned home for a day. Despite multiple attempts, they were unable to contact him, prompting the search.”
After filing a formal missing person report with the 55th Division of the Toronto police, the family discovered a body on May 7, located beneath a bridge.
The photograph confirmed the deceased individual as Ayush. His father traveled to Canada to complete the necessary formalities and repatriate the body for the final rites.
A similar incident recently occurred when Harsh Patel was also found deceased under mysterious circumstances. Both were nearing completion of their studies at York University, Ayush in engineering and Harsh in management studies. In both instances, the bodies were discovered in bodies of water.
Both individuals were missing for over a day, and their phones were absent from their surroundings, ruling out the possibility of suicide.
Harsh Patel’s family is still seeking closure, as no significant details regarding his final day have emerged.
