SOPORE: A medical student from the Dangerpora area of Sopore in north Kashmir’s Baramulla district was found dead in Bangladesh, his family said on Wednesday.
The deceased, identified as Adnan Ahmed Rather, son of Mohammad Altaf Rather, had travelled to Bangladesh around 15 days ago along with his mother to appear in his final-semester MBBS examination, news agency KNO reported.
According to the family, they lost contact with him two days ago and were subsequently informed that he was missing.
“A family member said they were informed on Tuesday evening that Adnan had been found dead near a water body.”

The family has appealed to the Government of India to intervene, coordinate with the authorities in Bangladesh and facilitate the early return of his mortal remains to Sopore.
