An unidentified militant hailing from the Kashmir Valley has returned to his family, the police said.
"With the help of community one more joins his family and shuns the path of violence," Kashmir Zone Police said on Twitter.
The identity of the person and his family was kept a secret by the police for safety purposes.
Many youngsters in the Valley have surrendered since last year after their families pleaded them to come back home.
More than a dozen militants have laid down their arms in Kashmir since last year when police announced that they will accept an offer to surrender of local militants even during ongoing encounters.
