In J&K’s Anantnag, Shahzada Bano’s house was demolished after her son, Adil Hussain Thoker, was named a suspect in the Pahalgam attack. Adil’s family claims no contact since 2018, when he left for an exam. Bano pleads for his surrender. Security forces searched the home before demolition, detaining Adil’s father, brothers, and cousins. Neighbors recall Adil as a dedicated student.

Prasanna Kumar Bhat, who visited Pahalgam with his family, survived the attack along with 35-40 others thanks to quick thinking by his brother, who is an Army officer.

Mumbai Fire Bridge upgraded the fire to Level III at around 4.17 am, which is generally considered a major fire.
