1. If he crossed by mistake then it is an unfortunate and regrettable incident
2. IA's reaction has to be seen in the context of the continuous infiltration of non-state actors, and the recent beheading incident.
3. On previous occasions, when it could be confirmed that a soldier had crossed over either by accident or without any threatening intentions, the Indian Army has allowed the individual to return unharmed.
