The terrorist which was neutralised by the Border Security Force (BSF) deployed at the Line of Control (LoC) in Keri Sector, Rajouri, Jammu and Kashmir has been recognised as a Lashkar-e-Taiba (Let) militant.

Earlier, the BSF personnel foiled an infiltration bid after they observed a suspicious movement. The BSF organised effective and calibrated fire, in which one terrorist was neutralised.

The terrorists also fired on the BSF troops on duty, which continued for half-an-hour.

During a detailed search of the area in the morning, one black bag was recovered containing one night vision monocular, an AK Magazine filled along with edible items.

Earlier this month, a 20-metre tunnel dug from Pakistan to help terrorists infiltrate into India was found by the BSF near the International Border.

The tunnel was discovered during searches at the Ramgarh sector in Sambha.
