It's her husband. Search his house not the park.
What is involuntary circumstances? Did she left unwillingly?

Here is better news than anybody else from WaPo.
On July 31, she did not call her mother in Nepal, as she had faithfully done every morning and evening, to share the mundane — what she ate that day — and the significant — the milestones her infant daughter was hitting, her brother said in an interview.
On Aug. 1, co-workers called police when she missed a shift at UVA Health Prince William Medical Center. A Manassas Park police officer went to her house the next day to do a welfare check but left after her husband declined to report her missing, the police department said in a news release. Family still had not heard from her, said the brother, who described pleading with his brother-in-law on Aug. 4 to call authorities.
On Aug. 5, Mamta Kafle Bhatt’s husband reported her missing, formally engaging police in a search effort already underway by the nurse’s family and friends.Her brother, Mahesh Kafle, and other supporters spoke to The Washington Post in a bid to keep public attention on the case, offering new details on the timeline of her disappearance and other information about her life that they hope might help bring the 28-D.C. region.In a TV interview, Naresh Bhatt pleaded for his wife to return to him and their baby, who will turn 1 this month. When reached by phone, he did not answer questions. He did not respond to text messages or answer the door of the couple’s house on Heather Court in Manassas Park.
Accounts of the couple’s relationship from Mamta Bhatt’s brother and two friends, as well as her own posts in a private Facebook group, reflect turbulence that prompted her to leave the home at least once, in February.Kafle, as well as friends Ashish Sangroula and Sarita Neupane, said the couple had a disagreement then that resulted in Bhatt staying with Neupane for a week. It was not clear what caused the strain. Police did not respond to questions about whether there had been any past calls for service at the home. Neighbors who came to the door Thursday said the couple largely kept to themselves.Stuti Lamsal Poudel joins people gathered outside the Manassas Park Police Department on Thursday to press for more information about the disappearance of Mamta Kafle Bhatt.
Neupane first met Bhatt because her husband was friends with Naresh Bhatt, 37. Neupane said that the couple had an arranged marriage in 2020 and that Mamta Bhatt immigrated to the United States in 2021. A fellow nurse from Nepal, Neupane said she helped Bhatt navigate becoming a registered nurse in the United States.
Bhatt and her baby arrived at Neupane’s home in February without money, a car or a working phone, she said, so Neupane bought her a used phone and added her to her family’s phone plan to ensure she could coordinate ride-share trips to her shifts at the hospital.
Neupane said that, at one point, Mamta Bhatt briefly had her own apartment in Falls Church. In an interview with WUSA9, Naresh Bhatt cited this as a reason he did not immediately report her missing, saying she had gone missing three times before.
“At that time, she has some demands so that’s why she just step out and stay with a couple times with her friends and one time she moved to Falls Church, to someone, I don’t know the name but she has an apartment,” Naresh Bhatt told the reporter, according to a WUSA9 article.The same month, posts from Mamta Bhatt’s Facebook account began appearing in a closed group for single mothers in the DMV area, asking for help.
In posts on Feb. 6 and 16, Bhatt’s account seeks advice from the group on navigating a separation and retaining custody of her baby. In follow-up comments, she appears to post about being new to the United States, unsure of where to go for legal help and worried about money.
Her posts caught the attention of Veronika Simon, who saw her own experience reflected in Bhatt’s words. The 30-year-old mother of a young daughter immigrated to the United States from Ukraine and turned to the Facebook group for help in a time of need. Members connected her with local domestic violence shelters and support groups.
“I think she was in distress,” said Simon, who never met Bhatt but was motivated to join in the search for her this week. “I know how hard it is to navigate immigration, relationships, being a new mom and also trying to work.”
Volunteers search for Bhatt on Thursday at Blooms Park.
Along with dozens of others, Simon donned a neon-yellow safety vest and a whistle on Thursday to spend her evening scouring Manassas Park’s Blooms Park Trail for any sign of Bhatt.
Though most did not know Bhatt, all had a reason her story resonated with them. Kevin Perez owned a private investigator firm for four years and wanted to use his experience to help out. Stephanie Courtney couldn’t help but be reminded of her own daughter — a 33-year-old nurse practitioner with young children. Deborah Corpening, a mother and medical professional, said she was haunted by the thought of an 11-month-old not knowing where her mom is.
For Prabhav Shah, a fellow Nepali immigrant, the search was something he could do in the face of fear for her safety.
Many members of the community are distraught and looking to help in any way they can, whether it be reaching out to the Embassy of Nepal or spending hours walking through the woods — even if the odds of finding her there were low.“There’s always a 1 percent chance there, and that’s enough,” Shah said.
One group in the search party stood out — instead of neon safety vests, they wore dark-blue scrubs. A group of nurses, some of whom worked closely with Bhatt and others who never met her, had attended a gathering at the police station, then headed to the park.
Among them was Bhatt’s former co-worker, Holly Wirth, who immediately grew concerned when she heard Bhatt had not showed up to her shift as a pediatric nurse because it was so out of her friend’s character.
“We are not sleeping well,” Wirth said about the group of nurses. “This has become our part-time — if not full-time — jobs, fighting to bring her home.”
A group of nurses, some who work with Bhatt, join the search for her.
Wirth said Bhatt’s friends and family have questions about why police did not do more to locate her during the Aug. 2 welfare check.
Marking a welfare check as “complete” without making direct contact with the subject is not entirely unusual, said Ian Adams, a policing scholar at the University of South Carolina. If police make contact with a person close to the subject, such as a husband, that can also be considered sufficient, Adams said, adding that officers’ ability to probe further is limited in a noncriminal call.
“Police have to be sort of careful around these sorts of things,” Adams said. “It’s not the case that a welfare check gives you the right to barge into homes or start conducting a criminal investigation.”
Manassas Park police did not respond to questions about the welfare check Aug. 2 or an inquiry Saturday about whether Bhatt’s disappearance was being investigated as a criminal matter.
As the days continue to pass without answers, Bhatt’s family and friends grow increasingly alarmed. But while her brother fights to obtain a visa to come search for his sister in person, he implores the community to continue searching.
“What we need to do is find Mamta, to look for her,” Kafle said. “No matter what, I need to find my younger sister.”
