Three Gujjar and Bakerwal men have been missing for the past three days from the Qazigund area in south Kashmir’s Kulgam district.
According to family members, the trio—Reyaz Ahmad and Showkat Ahmad of Chandian Pajan, and Mukhtar Ahmad of Pratap Pora Lammer—went missing on the evening of February 13 after leaving their homes to attend a wedding at their maternal uncle’s house in Ashmuji Bhan, Kulgam.
Despite contacting all relatives and friends, the families have been unable to trace their whereabouts. “We have filed a missing report at the Qazigund Police Station,” they stated, urging anyone with information to reach out to them at 9682634506.
A senior police official confirmed that the missing report has been received and that efforts to locate the men are underway.
Local residents have been urged to come forward with any information that could assist in the search.
