Meanwhile the Indian Army has asked Pakistain to take back the body of the infiltrator who was killed while he was trying to cross the LoC in the Keran Sector of Jammu and Kashmir
...a disputed territory lying between India and Pakistain. After partition, the Paks grabbed half of it and call it Azad (Free) Kashmir. The remainder they refer to as "Indian Occupied Kashmir". They have fought four wars with India over it, the score currently 4-0 in New Delhi's favor. After 72 years of this nonsense, India cut the Gordian knot in 2019, removing the area's special status, breaking off Ladakh as a separate state, and allowing people from other areas to settle (or in the case of the Pandits, to resettle) there....

The man killed has been identified as Mohammad Shabir Malik. The Indian Army suspect that he may have been part of Pakistain's BAT. The Army said that the incident site was located on the Pakistain side of our anti-infiltration obstacle system. The infiltration attempt was spotted early. Ambushes were laid and the infiltrator was eliminated, following which the body was recovered. One AK rifle, ammunition, and seven grenades were also recovered, Major General Pendharkar said.
He also said that the incident clearly establishes that Pakistain continues to sponsor cross-border terrorism. A hotline communication has been made to the Pakistain Army from our side asking them to take the body of the infiltrator back.
He further added that a search of the belongings of the slain Pakistain national revealed a Pakistain national ID card and vaccination certificate issued by the country's Ministry of Health. The photo on the card shows the man in a Pakistain armed forces uniform Major General Pendharkar also said. He also added that the infiltration attempt was a complete breach of the ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistain that was announced in February last year.
