Pakistan hands over body of BSF soldier to India
By news desk
Oct.01,2019
Indian soldier had drowned and his body reportedly swept towards Pakistani side along Working Boundary
Pakistan handed over body of an Indian Border Security Force (BSF) soldier to Indian authorities after he drowned and swept towards Pakistan along the Working Boundary, the military said on Tuesday.
“Indian BSF soldier Sub-Inspector Paritosh Mondal had drowned while crossing Aik Nullah along Working Boundary inside Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir and his body was reported to have swept towards Pakistan side,” said a statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
The security force had requested Pakistan Rangers to search the body. “Pakistan Rangers Punjab undertook a search operation, recovered the body and handed over to Indian BSF today as per military procedure,” the military’s media wing added.
The goodwill gesture was made despite continued ceasefire violations by the Indian troops along the Line of Control (LoC) and Working Bounday.
On Sunday, an elderly woman and a 13-year-old boy were martyred and three other civilians including two women injured in unprovoked Indian firing along the LoC on Sunday.
The Foreign Office has summoned Indian officials several times to condemn the unprovoked firing.
