Baramulla: A young man from Sopore was found dead in Vijaypur, Jammu, on Wednesday. The deceased has been identified as Khalid Sharief Bhat of Arampora, Sopore.
Family members of the deceased said that Khalid had left home for an outing around 10 days ago. They last spoke to him on December 08 when he informed them he was at Jewel Chowk in Jammu. When they attempted to contact him afterwards, his phone remained switched off, causing concern.
The recovery of his body has deepened the family’s suspicion that the death may not be natural. They have appealed for a thorough and transparent investigation to determine the circumstances in which Khalid died.
