AMRITSAR: After drone intrusions for three days in a row, Border Security Force (BSF) personnel foiled an intrusion attempt by Pakistan by gunning down an armed man, suspected to be a terrorist, near the border village of Darya Mansoor, Amritsar district, at around 8 am on Tuesday, officers of the border guarding force said.
The armed intruder, in his late forties, had crossed the international border and was heading towards the international border fence in the area, which falls under BSF’s border outpost Channa in Gurdaspur sector.
Spotting the intruder, the BSF personnel challenged him, but he continued to move towards the border fence regardless, which led to the BSF men shooting him dead, BSF IG (Punjab Frontier) Asif Jalal said.
