A 69-year-old Non-Resident Indian, who went missing from Mumbai international airport, has been traced to a suburb and reunited with his daughter after 12 days with the help of two alert citizens, police said on Monday.

The NRI, Dharmalingam Pillai, who has been suffering from memory loss and lives in South Africa, went missing on January 30 a few hours before he and his daughter were scheduled to take a flight from the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport here to Durban, they said.

Pillai, who is a retired clerk, and his daughter, working on a senior position in the field of logistics, had come to India to visit their roots on the occasion of his birthday. His grandfather had gone to South Africa and since then the family was settled in Durban, an official said.
