BIJBEHARA: Before security forces levelled her home with controlled explosives, Shahzada Bano was shown the spot where her son Adil Hussain Thoker had returned to eat a meal.
Hours later, soldiers razed the family's house in Anantnag district, after escorting Bano to a relative's place in a neighbouring village. Adil, once a promising student, is now among the chief suspects in Tuesday's attack in Pahalgam. His family maintains they have had no contact with him since 2018.
Bano insisted her son could not be involved in the killings but added: "If he is involved, the forces can act accordingly." She also appealed for Adil to surrender, "so that we can live in peace".
Adil's father Waleem, his brothers Jahir and Arshlam, and his cousins Julankar and Sajjad are all in custody. His mother was detained for a day.
