"She was found this morning," a police official involved with the case said, without sharing any further details. Majumdar was reportedly staying in a hotel in Bengaluru and police were informed by the staff after recognising her with the help of photographs shared on the social media. She had come home on April 4 from Toronto, Canada, where she has been pursuing post-doctoral fellowship, police said.
