The police had traced Malik from a house in Habak in Nigeen area of Srinagar (near the University), where he was staying as atenant.

Malik, a native of Pinjoora in south Kashmir’s Shopian district, had taken active part in protests organised at the university campus against the recent death of two civilians in Kulgam during an encounter.

Malik was last seen in the afternoon of February 21, his friends had told Hindustan Times on Thursday.

A police statement on Friday said during interrogat­ion, Malik has revealed that “he was under stress for unknown reasons”.

Sources said he had developed “paranoia” about his own safety after news spread that he was at the forefront of protests in the campus.

The statement further added that after Malik went “missing”, he had spent the first night at SKIMS hospital in Soura and the second night at SMHS hospital.

The following day he visited a friend’s house in Baramulla in north Kashmir and spent the last night again at SMHS hospital, police said.

Sources say that Malik was “hiding” in the hospitals as he felt he would not be recognised there.

“After proper counsellin­g the student was handed over to chief proctor, University of Kashmir, in presence of his relatives and friends,” the statement said.

The university, in a statement, has appreciate­d the efforts of the police and the office of the chief proctor.
