Amid tension, India returns Pakistani national

AMRITSAR: Notwithstanding the brimming tension across Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu following brutal killing of two Indian soldiers by Pakistani army, India on late Wednesday night repatriated a Pakistani national who had inadvertently crossed into India.

A BSF official Shubhendu Bhardwaj informed TOI on Thursday that Sayed Naseem Hussain Shah, 28, was detained by BSF's Kissan Guard inside Indian territory near Kahangarh check post on Wednesday.

The preliminary interrogation of Shah revealed that he was upset following a tiff with his wife and left his home in fit of anger. Resident of Patti Ground falling under Naulakha police station in Lahore, Shah, informed his interrogators that he worked as a labourer in a fan manufacturing factory in Lahore.

Shubhendu informed that investigations revealed that on Wednesday noon Shah had a fight with his wife over some issue and he even thrashed her following which he left his home in state of absent mindedness and came toward the Pakistan side of Integrated Check Post (ICP) at Wagah from where he entered India. According to BSF official, Shah admitted that he was spotted by Pakistan Rangers who didn't prevent him from crossing the border. But as he crossed the international boundary with Pakistan and entered India, he was challenged by BSF's Kissan Guard and was asked to return but he didn't listen to them following which he was detained. BSF recovered Rs 105 Pakistan currency, a double SIM mobile phone and an identity card in Urdu. After being convinced of his innocence, BSF sent a message for flag meeting to Pakistan Rangers at India-Pakistan joint check post at Attari at around 8pm and provided them with Shah's details for verification. It took nearly three hours to ascertain Shah's identity following which he was handed over to Pakistan Rangers at midnight after obtaining receipt from them.
