The Border Security Force (BSF) Tuesday recovered the body of a slain guerrilla after an infiltration bid was foiled in Kathua district of Jammu and Kashmir, police said.

"The body of the intruder, who was killed in firing by the BSF near Karol Mathura border outpost in Hiranagar sector, has been recovered," a senior police officer told IANS here.

"Nothing was recovered from the body," he said.
