Has this love story gone sour? Former Haryana deputy chief minister Chander Mohan, who converted to Islam and became Chand Mohammad to marry a second time, is “missing”.

His wife, Fiza, an advocate who was Anuradha Bali before she married Chand, told police on Wednesday that her husband had been missing since morning. But Mohammad told some TV channels that he was “not a child” and dismissed his wife’s
allegation that he had been kidnapped.

Fiza told reporters that “some persons close to Kuldip Bishnoi, (her brother-in-law) had come in the morning and taken him away”. Later agencies quoted Fiza as saying that Chand spoke to her and said he was near Delhi.
