JAMMU: Alert BSF personnel thwarted an infiltration attempt along the international border in RS Pura sector, Jammu, on Thursday and detained a Pakistani intruder who had sneaked into Indian territory.
Officials said BSF troops manning the border noticed the suspect’s movement and kept a close watch, apprehending him as soon as he crossed over around 1.30pm. No incriminating material was found on the suspect, identified as Mohammad Akram, a resident of Kundanpur in Sialkot , Pakistan . A joint team of security agencies was questioning him.

The force had subsequently lodged a protest with their Pakistani counterparts over the infiltration bid.
