| Ultras sighted at Pak's Saidanwali post | | Alert on IB | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, Oct 19: A high alert was sounded all along the International Border (IB) following intelligence inputs that three to four Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) were camping in Pakistan's Saidanwali border post to infiltrate into the Indian territory.
The inputs got authenticated with the wireless intercepts of a conversation between two militant commanders, highly placed sources told The Early Times.
Sources said there were confirmed reports of three to four foreign militants of LeT having reached Pak's Saidanwali post, situated across Chamblyal in Ramgarh sub-sector of Samba.
Saidanwali was a launching pad and militants were in wait for an opportune moment to make an infiltration bid, the sources added.
Sources said BSF and border police had been put on high alert to foil any infiltration bid by the militants. Patrolling was further intensified by BSF and multiple ambushes laid with police teams plugging some of the known infiltration routes.
Sources said the LeT militants were also seen moving in the Saidanwali post area by border troops.
The militants could blow up the border fencing while attempting to infiltrate, the sources added, saying if they dared to do so, they would be shot dead by the alert troops.
There was also a possibility of the Pak Rangers giving them a cover fire by opening fire on the forward Indian outposts.
Sources said police checking points on the Jammu-Kathua stretch of the national highway had also been alerted.
Sources said the Pak ISI was desperate to push militants into the Indian territory before the onset of winters. Their intentions could also be to disturb peace on the eve of the forthcoming Deepawali festival, the sources added. |
