Kulgam district in South Kashmir is witnessing a tense situation as an Indian Army soldier, Javid Ahmad Wani, has gone missing under enigmatic circumstances from his hometown, Ashthal. The young soldier was last seen on Saturday evening, and the mystery surrounding his disappearance has prompted the Indian armed forces and security personnel to launch a large-scale search operation in the region.
Adding to the intrigue, a car stained with blood was discovered about 3 kilometers away from Javid's residence. He had ventured to Chawalgam Bazaar for errands but took an unconventional route back home, leaving his family in distress. As the search efforts continue, the soldier's mother has made an emotional appeal through a video message, beseeching anyone with information to come forward and ensure her son's safe return. The incident has raised concerns about security in the area and highlights the challenges faced by security forces in the volatile region of Jammu & Kashmir.
