Srinagar: An Army jawan has went missing with AK-47 and three magazines from north Kashmir's Baramulla district on Thursday.

He has been identified as Zahoor Ahmad Thakur and is associated with the 173 Territorial Army.

Thakur is a resident of Pulwama district in South Kashmir.

An alert has been sounded as officials fear that Thakur might have sided with the militants in the Valley.

The separatists have called a week-long protest to mark the first death anniversary of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani.

Wani was killed in a gunfight in Kokarnag area of Anantnag district on July 8, 2016.​

The Hizbul militant's death triggered a summer of discontent and months of violence in Kashmir that left nearly a hundred people dead.
