BSF foils infiltration attempt in Jammu, Pakistani intruder shot dead

The Border Security Force (BSF) foiled an infiltration bid by gunning down a Pakistani intruder along the border in the Ranbir Singh (RS) Pura sector of Jammu district on Friday night.

An official spokesperson said on Saturday: “BSF personnel observed suspicious movement across the border in the Jammu sector. An intruder was seen crossing the border despite being challenged by the BSF. He paid no heed to caution and kept moving on,” the spokesperson said.

Eventually, the BSF troops neutralised him, sensing threat.

The identity and motive of the intruder are being ascertained.

A protest was lodged with the Pakistan Rangers.
