Border Force Stops Infiltration Attempts Along Jammu Border, Intruder Killed

Both incidents show that attempts to engineer infiltration from across the border are on, the BSF said.

The Border Security Force stopped two infiltration attempts along the International Border (IB) in Jammu frontier early Tuesday, killing an intruder and arresting another, officials said.

"At about 2.30 am today, alert BSF troops noticed suspicious movement of an intruder near the International Border in Arnia sector (of RS Pura area). The intruder crossed over to the Indian side from IB and started moving towards the fence", Inspector General of BSF, Jammu Frontier, DK Boora, told reporters at the force headquarters here.

He said troops warned the intruder many times not to move forward, but he didn't pay any heed and kept aggressively moving toward the fence.

"On this, BSF troops fired and neutralised the intruder and thwarted the infiltration attempt", he said.
