Head Constable Abhishek Sharma, a member of the 137th Battalion of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), has gone missing under mysterious circumstances since May 26, 2025. After leaving the CRPF center on that day, no trace of him has been found. The CRPF has filed a missing person report with the local police, who are working jointly with CRPF personnel to locate him. The incident has created a tense and worried atmosphere within the entire unit.
Abhishek Sharma, aged 28, was posted in the ministerial department of the 137th CRPF Battalion in Udhampur for nearly a year. According to his family, he entered the CRPF center between 6:30 and 7:00 AM on May 26 but disappeared shortly afterward. His mobile phone was switched off around 7:30 AM the same day and has not been turned on since, leaving no communication or leads.
His brother, who arrived in Udhampur following the disappearance, shared that Abhishek was unmarried and had spoken normally to their mother the night before, on May 25, around 9 PM. At that time, he appeared to be in good spirits with no signs of distress or concern.
The CRPF Commanding Officer (CO) and the entire battalion are actively involved in the search efforts. The family has visited the local police station where the FIR was filed and requested a thorough examination of CCTV footage to gather any clues about Abhishek’s whereabouts.
This unexplained disappearance has not only distressed the family but also unsettled the entire CRPF unit. Despite ongoing search operations led jointly by the police and CRPF officers, no substantial leads have emerged so far. The search continues amid growing concern for the safety and well-being of the missing jawan.
