An intruder was killed and another arrested by Border Security Forces (BSF) on Tuesday along the International Border (IB) in Jammu and Kashmir.
An official told a local news agency, Kashmir News Observer (KNO), BSF troops foiled two separate attempts of infiltration in the Arnia sector of Jammu and Ramgarh sector of Samba districts in the wee hours.
He said BSF troops opened fire on the intruder when he was noticed aggressively approaching towards the border fence in the Arnia sector.
“He was challenged to stop but he did not pay any heed. Finding no other alternative, the troops fired and killed him,” he said.
In another incident in Ramghar sector, BSF troops apprehended an intruder as he approached fencing after crossing the IB.
“He was brought inside the Indian side of the fence after opening the gate. Nothing incriminating was found from his possession so far,” he said. (KNO)
