Bhuj (Gujarat): The Border Security Force (BSF) detained a Pakistani national on Wednesday morning while he was trying to cross the border fence and sneak into India in Gujarat's Kutch district, an official said.

The Pakistani national is being interrogated, the BSF said in an official statement by the BSF after the detention. The man has been identified as 30-year-old Afzal, a resident of Sialkot in Pakistan.
