"Tarikh-i-Kabir Kashmir" is a Persian work that mentions that Yuzu Asaf, the occupant of the Roza Bal, is believed to be Hazrat Isa, i.e., Jesus Christ. The above text is from Volume 1, page 34 of that work. The highlighted portion reads: "Khawaja Azam Didmari writes that in the past, a Prince who absorbed himself in prayers and piety attained the station of a Messenger and was sent to this land for guidance of the people. His name was Yuz-Asaph. After his death, he was burried here in Mohalla Anzmar near Khanyar." (Yellow highlighting is that of Dr. Hassnain's.)

Recall the letter of Maulvi Abdullah to Mirza Ghulam Ahmad in which he stated that there is a stone which has "footprints" carved upon it near the grave of Yuz Asaf. The letter of Maulvi Abdullah was published November 30, 1898 in the book, Raz-i-Haqiqat ('Secret of the Truth'). The footprints clearly show that the sculptor was depicting the feet of a man who had been wounded, and he wished to portray this in some manner. For more information, click here.

The Qisa Shazada Yuzasaph wo hakim Balauhar (The Story of the Prince Yuzasaph and the Philosopher Balauhar). This is another very interesting book that mentions the presence of Yuz Asaf in Kashmir.

Some critics of Nicholas Notovitch allege that a Buddhist monk at the Hemis monastery stated that Mr. Notovitch never visited that Buddhist monastery in Tibet where he claimed to have been shown Sanskrit documents recording Jesus' trip to India. Above is the English translation (translated by Dr. Hassnain) of a German diary that was kept by a German missionary named Br. Weber at a Christian mission in Tibet called the Moravian Mission. In the P.S. of the above document, it states that the older monks stated that they did remember Notovitch's trip to Hemis, and that he was shown manuscripts mentioning Jesus in India.
