Pakistani intruder shot dead by BSF in Ferozepur

AMRITSAR: A Pakistani intruder was today shot dead by BSF when he crossed into Indian territory during the wee hours and refused to surrender before the troops patrolling the Indo-Pak border.

A BSF official said that the Pakistani intruder entered the Indian territory through DRD Border Out Post (BOP) falling in the Ferozepur sector.

The intruder was repeatedly asked to surrender but he kept marching towards the troops who were on night patrol. The BSF personnel then opened fire, killing him on the spot.
