An unidentified body was recovered from a river in the Nowshera area of Rajouri district on Thursday, officials said. Locals engaged in contract work spotted the body floating in the water and alerted the police.

A police team along with SDRF personnel reached the spot and retrieved the body. Officials said the body is in a decomposed condition, making identification difficult. The body has been taken into custody and an investigation has been launched.
Decomposed bodies in rivers of border districts like Rajouri are often linked to infiltration attempts, accidental drownings, or local crime. The SDRF involvement suggests terrain difficulty or suspicion of foul play. The lack of identity will likely delay any ruling, but police records and missing person reports from both sides of the Line of Control may eventually match. Watch for any recovery of belongings or forensics that could clarify the cause and timeline.
