BSF Arrests Pakistani National Near Border, Terrorists Trapped in Kulgam Encounter

In two separate incidents along the India-Pakistan border, the Border Security Force (BSF) has been active in maintaining security and preventing illegal crossings.

On the night of September 8, a Pakistani national named Siraj Khan was apprehended by BSF troops in Jammu's R S Pura sector. The arrest occurred after Khan was spotted near the border fence, exhibiting suspicious activity. Upon search, Pakistani currency was recovered from Khan's person. Khan is currently undergoing interrogation to determine the purpose behind his attempt to enter Indian territory.

In a separate incident, two terrorists have been trapped in an encounter in Kulgam's Gudar Forest. The incident occurred on an unspecified date, and further investigation is ongoing to gather more details about the incident.

The first incident took place in the Octroi outpost around 9:20 pm, where Khan was arrested. The location of the second incident, the Kulgam's Gudar Forest, is different from the previous arrest.

Warning shots were fired and a few rounds were discharged as a precautionary measure during the Kulgam encounter. The BSF remains vigilant and committed to ensuring the safety and security of Indian territory.

The arrest of Siraj Khan serves as a reminder of the continuous efforts by the BSF to prevent illegal border crossings and maintain peace along the India-Pakistan border. The ongoing investigation will provide more insights into the motives behind Khan's attempt to enter India and the circumstances surrounding the Kulgam encounter.
