Two Pakistani intruders were shot dead by the Border Security Force along the International Border in Punjab’s Tarn Taran district, an official of the BSF said on Saturday.
The BSF troops noticed suspicious movement near the border fence at 8.48 pm on Friday, he said. Thereafter, the BSF personnel asked the intruders to stop, but they did not pay heed to repeated warnings. Sensing threat, the BSF troops opened fire, the official said.
The incident took place at Thehkelan (Amarkot) area of Ferozepur and a detailed search was in progress, the statement added.
