Pak intruder shot by BSF in Pathankot: Reports

A Pakistani intruder was shot by BSF in Bamial sector in Pathankot. 

The infiltrator was spotted 50 metres from the International Border.

A similar such attempt was made by an intruder in December 2015 where the BSF troopers shot down a suspect at Dhinda post in Pathankot district of Punjab. He came close to the border fencing in Bamiyal area.

Pathankot had seen a major terror attack in January 2015 when heavily-armed terrorists who had sneaked in from across the border attacked an air base.

On July 27 last year, Dinanagar in Punjab's Gurdaspur was also targeted by terrorists.
