"One Pakistan national was injured in a forward area of Nowshera's Sehar Makri. On being challenged he didn't stop so he was fired upon," they further added. The incident occurred after personnel in the Jhangarh area of Nowshera observed suspicious movements from across the border. The intruder was subsequently shifted to the Army hospital, Rajouri for treatment. Nothing discriminatory has been recovered from his possession so far, according to the Army.
The intruder was later identified as Tabarak Hussain, a resident of Kotli district in Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK). He, along with two others, was previously spotted trying to infiltrate the Indian territory on April 25, 2016. The duo was identified as Hussain and Haroon Ali. Hussain is known to have been trained by the Pak Army and worked for the Intelligence unit for two years. During this period, he was trained to acquire enemy information and establish a cover story in case the individual is ever apprehended. In addition, he underwent six weeks of training as a Guide at a LeT (Lashkar-e-Taiba) training camp alongside LoC at Bhimber.
