“Very reserved but very, very intelligent ... a bit of a techno-freak and he made a lot of circuits and projects at engineering college.” This is how 23-year-old Swawand Kolekar is described by his close friend Archit Joshi. Residents of Yogi Nagar in Borivli, India, Swawand and his parents Chetana, 55, and Vinod Kolekar, 59, were on their way to meet Sanved, Swawand’s eldest brother, who works in Beijing. They were among the five Indians on board MH370. TSRMY-016
