A mysterious disappearance has been reported involving a 23-year-old student from Telangana who had gone to the US city of Boston for higher studies. According to a report by 'Aaj Tak', Koya Sreeja Reddy, a resident of Shabdulapuram village in Kangal Mandal of Nalgonda district, had been residing and studying in Boston for some time. She has not returned since leaving her residence on the night of 2 November, causing a wave of intense concern among her family members and friends.
According to official information provided by the Boston Police Department, Sreeja was last seen on the night of 2 November at approximately 9:45. At that time, she had left her home located at Edison Green in the Dorchester area. Subsequently, contact with her was lost, and no information has been available regarding her whereabouts. Upon learning of the incident, local police have set investigations in motion and have undertaken intensive efforts to locate the young woman.
The police administration officially declared a 'Missing Alert' regarding this matter on 4 November.

Sreeja Reddy had gone to America for higher studies approximately one year ago. She is pursuing a Master's degree at the University of Massachusetts Boston.
