Jammu/New Delhi, Sep 19: A missing BSF soldier’s throat-slit body with multiple bullet injuries was found in the Jammu region, officials said Wednesday.

The missing Border Security Force (BSF) soldier was identified as head constable Narender Singh. The BSF had earlier said the name of the victim was Narender Kumar.

Blaming the incident on Pakistani troops, BSF officials said “the body of the jawan bears three bullet injuries and his throat has been slit. This is an unprecedented action that has happened with the Indian forces along the IB and the Pakistani troopers are behind this. The BSF and other forces will undertake a counter-action at a suitable time.”

The incident came a day after Home Minister Rajnath Singh inaugurated the maiden “smart fence” project of the BSF in Jammu on Monday that aims to deploy smart technology and gadgets to secure the vulnerable patches on the Indo-Pak border.

In a statement, the BSF said the incident happened after the Pakistani side resorted to “unprovoked firing” on a BSF party at Ramgarh sector which went ahead of the border fence to cut the tall elephant grass (Sarkanda).

“Such tactical patrol is routinely sent to clear the wild vegetation for clearing the field of view along the International Border. This area also carries importance as Pakistan side has a ‘protective bundh’ closer to the International Border,” the statement said.

The firing by the Pakistan side was retaliated by the patrol which tactically extricated themselves to its side of the fence. But the patrol later found one of their members missing.

The BSF has lodged a strong protest with the Pakistan Rangers, they added.

The BSF also made several attempts to reach out to the Pakistani side for maintaining the sanctity of the frontier and ensure that the search parties were not fired upon.

The Pakistan Rangers, officials said, was asked to take part in a joint patrolling to trace the missing soldier, but they came up only to a certain point and cited waterlogging problems in the area that prevented them from undertaking a coordinated action.

The BSF then waited for sunset and launched a “risky operation” to bring the soldier’s body back to the post by “late evening”.

Officials in the security establishment said the brutal incident was taken “very seriously” by the government. The Ministry of External Affairs and the Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) were also expected to take up the issue with their Pakistani counterparts.
