The Indian Coast Guard today said it has deployed a ship off the old Mangalore port to search for VG Siddhartha, the founder of the Cafe Coffee Day. The Coast Guard said it has also deployed three diving teams in the search operations.
VG Siddhartha, the son-in-law of former Karnataka chief minister SM Krishna, was reported to have gone missing after he left from Bengaluru on Monday night, police said.
ICGS Rajdoot has been tasked to patrol off the old Mangalore Port and maintaining a sharp lookout very close to harbor mouth, while ICGS Savitribai Phule has been kept on standby.
"Air Cushion Vehicle (H-198) is undertaking a search in Nethrvathi River and providing support to CG diving teams. Three diving teams, along with the district disaster relief team, has been deputed to carry out the search for the missing person," the Coast Guard said in a statement.
Siddhartha was headed for Sakaleshpur, Karnataka, but on the way, he had asked his driver to go towards Mangaluru, according to the police.
