“We contacted all our relatives, his friends and other people but nobody has any clue about him,” he said, adding that after failing to trace him, they lodged a missing report at Police Station Awantipora.

“Since then, we have been searching him everywhere but so far we haven’t got any clue about him,” he said while requesting everyone to kindly allow his brother to return home if he is with anyone.

He said that he was a brilliant student and has secured 94 percent marks in Class 10th examinations while he got around 90 percent marks in 12th class examinations.

He was never arrested before and hasn’t even taken part in street protests, he said.

Pertinently, three local youth including a lone son of a family from the particular village have joined militancy since July 2020.

A senior police officer said that a BUMS student from Awantipora is missing and the efforts are on to trace him. He added that it would be premature to say whether he has joined any militant organization as investigation in this regard is going on.
