The accused has been identified as Pradeep Singh, a resident of Khanjarwal. Deceased Mudsir Manzoor hailed from Baramulla.

According to ASI Lakhbir Singh, the victim was riding a motorcycle with friends when the accused, reportedly driving recklessly, hit the bike near Birmi village. The collision left the young student critically injured. He was rushed to a hospital where doctors declared him dead.

Mudsir, who was pursuing nursing studies at a college, was the only brother of two girls. His father Manzoor Ahmed said the family was in a complete shock after the accident and had initially refrained from filing a complaint due to trauma. After nearly six weeks, the father approached the police, prompting the registration of a case against the car driver.

The investigating officer added, “The family suffered extreme trauma after the incident. Police have registered a case under Section 106 of the BNS and are currently searching for the accused.”
