Surjeet Kumar, a resident of Bhartund in Doda district, "had been working in the hotel at his own will since his disappearance in 2015", a senior Police officer said.

On March 21, 2016, Kumar's father lodged a complaint at Doda police station alleging that his son had been kidnapped and killed.

The matter was then highlighted in the local media and a candle-march was also organised by the civil society.

The boy had been working as helper at a household in Doda when he went missing, the officer said.

Yesterday, a police team rescued the boy from Delhi.
