Srinagar: The Jammu and Kashmir government has recommended a CBI probe into mysterious disappearance of a 400-year-old copy of holy Koran from a museum here, official sources said today.
The rare manuscript, believed to have been written by Mughal emperor Aurangzeb, was found missing from high-security Sri Pratap Singh museum in 2003.
The state government has recommended the CBI probe as police had failed to recover the holy Muslim book which was found missing during a routine inspection, the sources said.
