In a bizarre and startling turn of events, a family from Meerut experienced an unusual conclusion to a five-day search when their missing groom, who had vanished on his wedding night, was found safe in Haridwar. The family, who had feared the worst, were later told that he had left due to mental stress.

Mohsin, the groom, had tied the knot in UP's Muzaffarnagar five days ago. On the night of the wedding, after entering the room where his bride awaited him, he was reportedly put off by the lights being too bright. According to a report from India Today, the bride requested that he change the bulb for a softer one. Mohsin stepped out to do so and apparently he did not return.

Throughout the night, both the bride and Mohsin's family waited for him to return, but he never did. CCTV footage later revealed him near the Ganga canal, prompting the authorities to send in PAC divers to search the waters.

The following morning, the situation grew more distressing as Mohsin’s two sisters were due to be married. With no sign of their brother, and panic growing, both weddings proceeded without him. Relatives described the shift in atmosphere from celebration to concern, as no one could understand why Mohsin had disappeared.

On Monday, a breakthrough came when Mohsin called a relative and informed them that he was in Haridwar. The family promptly contacted the police, and a team, accompanied by relatives, travelled to Haridwar where he was found safe and brought back.

During questioning, Mohsin explained that the overwhelming pressure he felt in front of his bride triggered intense anxiety, which led him to walk away without informing anyone. He continued walking until he reached Haridwar.

The family had been in turmoil for days, fearing the worst especially after CCTV footage had suggested he might have fallen into the canal. His safe return brought relief, putting an end to the anxiety that had plagued the family since the wedding night. The police have since handed Mohsin back to his family.
