Missing Natore priest rescued in Sylhet

Christian priest William Walter Rosario, who went missing on 27 November from Natore, has been rescued in Sylhet.

Sylhet police said they rescued the priest at 3:00pm on Friday from Kadamtali Bus Terminal in South Surma.

''He was found sitting in the terminal. He has already been sent to Dhaka. Dhaka police will inform newsmen more about his rescue,'' said South Surma police station officer-in-charge Khairul Fazal.

Assistant priest of Jonail Borny Church and headmaster of St Lewis High School William Walter Rosario went missing nearly five days ago.

He started from his residence by a motorcycle around 5:00pm to meet his elder brother at Jonail Dharmapalli, said his family members.

He remained missing ever since, they said.

Rosario's brother Premal said they suspected that he was kidnapped.
