But they swatted away a claim for ransom as false on Wednesday, a day before Pope Francis is scheduled to arrive in Bangladesh on a three-day tour. William, 42, headmaster of St Louis High School, went missing on his way to Jonail village from Bonparha Mission Market on Monday afternoon. On Tuesday midnight, a person called the family on the phone and claimed the priest was kidnapped, his brother Premal Rosario told bdnews24.com. About the ransom claim, he said, “We are investigating all angles. But the phone call demanding ransom seemed false to us.”
