Srinagar: An off-duty soldier has gone missing from Jammu and Kashmir’s Kulgam district, according to sources.

“If our son has done anything wrong, please forgive him”, the parents said in the video.
“Javed come home, please release him on mercy”, the mother said in the video.
Security forces have launched a massive hunt to trace the missing soldier.
