Border Security Force Facilitates Repatriation of Pakistani National

In a cross-border incident, the Border Security Force (BSF) successfully facilitated the repatriation of a Pakistani national who had inadvertently crossed into Indian territory. The individual, identified as Mohd Akram, was apprehended on September 25 in the R S Pura sector, located near Jammu city.

Officials confirmed that Akram, a resident of Pakistan, was not carrying any incriminating material at the time of his detention. His subsequent interrogation revealed that the crossing was unintentional.

Following protocol, the BSF engaged with their Pakistani counterparts, the Chenab Rangers, and organized a flag meeting to return Akram. The handover was completed late Friday after all necessary formalities were addressed, underscoring the importance of diplomatic engagement in accidental border crossings.
