Mother Son Reunite After 70 Years: Abdul Kuddus Munsi of Bangladesh was reportedly separated from his family at the mere age of 10 years. Now in his 80s, Abdul reunited with his family through a Facebook post.
The 82 year old was reportedly sent to live with his uncle’s family. He lost touch with his family and never got a chance to see them again when he ran away and was adopted by two sisters. Kuddus, is now himself a father to three grown-up sons and five daughters.
A businessman posted a video of the man on Facebook in the month of April requesting support to help locate Kuddus’ family with the only bit of information that Kuddus remembered- his parents’ and village’s name.
The post then came across a distant relative who lived in the same village who then connected with Kuddus and notified him of his mother Mongola Nessa’s existence.
A resident of Brahmanbaria, Kuddus travelled about 350 kilometres to Rajshahi to meet his mother and connect with his estranged family, as per reports. His mother, almost 100 years old, identified him through a tear-mark on his hand as well as his sister’s.
According to NDTV, Kuddus said, "My mother is very old and she can't speak properly. She was crying after seeing me and holding my hands. I told her that your son is back and you don't have to worry about anything from now."
The emotional reunion was witnessed by hundreds of villagers who came to see this scene and had tears in their eyes.
A couple of months ago, actor Kubra Sait took to her Instagram to share a heart-warming post about her reunion with a teacher from her school. The Sacred Games star had started a hashtag called #FindingSirChacko in order to seek help in finding her beloved teacher and was successfully able to reconnect with the teacher when she got his contact number through social media.
