TIL Desk/National/Jammu/ The Pakistani Border Action Team (BAT) made up of special forces men and terrorists were armed with ‘special daggers’ and ‘headband cameras’ to mutilate and record the attack on the Indian Army patrol party after entering 600 meters across the LoC in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch district.
The attack left two Indian soldiers dead while one BAT member was killed in retaliatory action by Indian troops. Army troops during search and sanitation operations, recovered the body of a member of the BAT team along LoC in Gulpur sector of Poonch district. “The body of the intruder killed in the BAT attempt on 22 June has been retrieved and handed over to the local police,” a senior army officer told.
“Arms, ammunition and other war-like stores, including a special dagger and a headband with a camera, knife, one A-K rifle, three magazines, two grenades besides dresses and bags was recovered which reflects the barbaric mindset of the Pakistan Army,” he said.
“The resolute action of our soldiers didn’t let the nefarious plan (of mutilating bodies and recording it on camera) succeed,” officer said. The BAT member was wearing headband with camera on his head to record the action and possible mutilation of jawans, which was prevented by other troops who shot dead one of them and injured another, he said.
