Srinagar, Mar 28, KDC: In a distressing incident, a 5-year-old girl was snatched from her home by a leopard in the Hariwani area of central Kashmir’s Budgam district.
According to reports from Srinagar-based news agency Kashmir Dot Com, the victim, identified as Toiba Mushtaq, daughter of Mushtaq Ahmad Khan, was taken by the leopard from the lawns of her residence in the evening.
Officials immediately initiated a search operation, mobilizing police, wildlife teams, and local residents to locate the missing girl.
