Mushtaq was initially admitted to the district hospital in Reasi after sustaining the injuries. Given the severity of his condition, medical personnel subsequently transferred him to a specialized hospital for advanced treatment.
The CISF, India's primary industrial security agency, has not yet released an official statement regarding the incident. Authorities have indicated that investigations are ongoing to establish the exact sequence of events leading to the officer's death.
The incident marks another casualty among security personnel in the volatile region, where security forces continue to face operational challenges. Officials are expected to release further details once the preliminary investigation concludes.
