| BSF fires on IB after 2 suspects sighted | | | JAMMU: Foiling an infiltration bid on the International Border (IB) at Ballad in Ramgarh sub-sector of Samba, BSF Tuesday night fired at two suspected militants who then fled back to Pakistan, fearing danger to their lives.
A BSF patrol picked up the movement of two suspected militants on the IB at about 12.30 pm. Official sources said when the suspects walked into the Indian territory towards the barbed-wire fencing, the jawans opened fire. The duo, however, did not retaliate and managed to flee back to Pak territory unhurt. The firing continued for about 15 minutes, the sources added.
Tracer rounds were also fired by BSF to illuminate the area. Vigil was further enhanced after this incident to foil any infiltration attempt by the Pak-based militants.
Sources said BSF, in a flag meeting held today with the Pak Rangers at Ballad, lodged their protest against the infiltration attempt by the suspected militants. The Rangers as usual expressed their ignorance over the incident, the sources added.
In the flag meeting, Indian side was represented by company commander Anjani Kumar, while Pak side was headed by superintendent Sadiq. |
