Lolab: Body of a mentally-challenged person, who had gone missing since yesterday, has been found and recovered from a nallah at Shumriyal area of Lolab, an official said on Tuesday morning.
Identifying the deceased as one Ghulam Mohi-ud-Din Ganie, 85, son of Mohammad Ahsan Ganie, a resident of Kanthpora Lolab, the official told GNS that the person had gone missing since yesterday evening.
“The body was spotted by locals lying in a nallah at Shumriyal Lolab, and accordingly recovered,” the official said.
Pertinently, in Kashmir, plains received occasional intense rainfall, and higher reaches saw fresh snowfall, causing water levels in rivers and streams to increase. These challenging weather conditions led to landslides and mudslides on important roads like the Srinagar-Jammu highway.
The meteorological department predicts that these weather patterns will continue until the late afternoon of April 30th, after which the weather should generally be dry and clear starting from May 5th.
