Mohammad Yaseen (19), a resident of Bharat in Doda, went missing on March 31 and a report was lodged by the family members to the police in the matter, police said.
During investigation, police found that the man was headed towards Bhadarwah with two other persons after the Friday prayer, In-charge police post Bhalla, Ajay Engotra said.
On interrogating the two persons, they told police that the three of them went to take bath in Neeru river during which Yaseen drowned, he said.
The body was taken to the district hospital for postmortem but the victim's family furnished an order issued by the District Magistrate Doda, refraining the doctors from performing postmortem as they have reportedly given an undertaking that there is no foul play involved in the matter and the man's death was an accident, he said.
The body was later handed over to the family members for last rites, the police officer said.
