An Army Jawan Mohammad Yaseen Bhat was abducted from his residence here in Qazipora on Friday. Bhat, a rifleman and on leave till the end of this month, was abducted by suspected terrorists from his home.

Further details are awaited. In June last year, another rifleman--Aurangzeb--was abducted from Pulwama by terrorists and his bullet-ridden body was recovered later the same month.
