BANIHAL/JAMMU, Apr 14 (PTI): Authorities on Tuesday intensified a multi-agency search in Jammu and Kashmir’s Ramban district for a man feared to have fallen into a fast-flowing stream after allegedly being assaulted for carrying a cow in his vehicle.

A Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been constituted and four people have been arrested in connection with the case, which triggered widespread protests and tension in the district along the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway.

Agitating locals, including the victim’s family, also blocked the arterial road for over four hours on Monday.
