Srinagar, Apr 29 (KNS): Despite elapsing 27 years since their ‘missing’ beloved Sajad Ahmad Bazaz of Hazratbal Srinagar was arrested allegedly by Border Security Force (BSF) men from his home, the family here continues to seek justice, demanding whereabouts of their beloved.

The family of ‘missing’ Sajad said that their beloved was arrested by the BSF men on 12 February 1992 but since then they don’t know about his whereabouts. “BSF men who were accompanied by one person namely Azad (informer) came to our house during which they arrested Sajad,” Sajad’s brother, Fayaz Ahmad Bazaz told Kashmir News Service (KNS).

He added they went from pillar to post to know about the whereabouts of Sajad but failed to get any information regarding him. “Our father also lost his life on 14 February 2018 in the struggle of finding Sajad’s whereabouts,” he said.

Bazaz further said that they also knocked the door of a court where the case is subjudice at present, saying that “an informer (Azad) who had left the Kashmir was arrested in Bihar on 05 April, 2019, who is yet to be produced before the court.”

“Our all efforts failed to yield any result as no favourable result came out in the last 27 years,” he said, adding that after Azad’s arrest, they are hopeful that their beloved will be traced soon.

Sajad’s brother later appealed the higher ups to help the family in tracing their beloved. (KNS)
