The woman was identified as Syeda Lulu Minhaj Zaidi who used to live in Maula Ali in Telangana. She left for the US to pursue her Master’s degree at the TRINE University in Detroit in the August of 2021, according to a letter written by her mother.
Since then, she had been in touch with the family frequently. However, for the last two months, the family lost all contact with the daughter. They’ve been trying to reach her since. A heartbreaking video of the lady recently surfaced where she is visibly malnourished and not at all in good condition.
She was found starving and homeless on the streets of Chicago. The video was shared by a Hyderabadi leader who appealed to the higher-ups to do all in their power to reunite her with her family. The video shows that Zaidi has trouble recalling her full name which indicates that she is not well.
