SRINAGAR: The body of an “intruder” who was shot dead by Border Security Force (BSF) on Tuesday along the Line of Control (LoC) in Uri area of north Kashmir’s Baramulla district has been returned to Pakistan Administered Kashmir (PaK) for last rites, officials said.

The slain has been identified as Kamran Chack son of Mohammad Nazir (39) resident of Bandi Sochian tehsil in the district Hatiyan Bala of Pakistan Administered Kashmir.

SSP Baramulla Abdul Quyoom confirmed to Kashmir Life that the body of the slain was handed over to Pakistan for the last rites.

Earlier, the body was handed over to the police after retrieving from no man’s land. According to officials, as about 2:15 pm an individual was observed moving suspiciously across the fence ahead of their own post at Dulanja Coy/70 Bn BSF by the santry.

“The intruder was asked to strip for a closer search. He ran back and after repeated verbal warnings, he didn’t listen and was shot by the sentry. The intruder had fallen on the ground across the fence,” reports quoted officials as saying.
