India's 'disappeared' death certificate reopens occupied Kashmir's wounds
Junaid Rashid's father, Abdul Rashid Wani, was declared dead by a court in Indian-occupied Kashmir 29 years after his disappearance in military custody. The ruling acknowledged an army officer's involvement in Wani's death but provided no information on his body's location, marking the first judicial recognition of such a case among thousands of enforced disappearances in the region.
