The Indian Army gunned down a Pakistani soldier on Saturday, while he was trying to infiltrate the Line of Control (LoC) in the Keran sector of Jammu &amp; Kashmir.</p>
<p>
&quot;An attempt by the Pakistan Army&#39;s Border Action Team was made yesterday in Keran sector. Swift action by troops on the LoC foiled the bid and eliminated the terrorist – a Pakistan national,&quot; Major General AS Pendharkar, GOC 28 Infantry Division, said on Sunday.</p>
<p>
He said that a hotline communication has been made to the Pakistani Army to take back the dead body.</p>

Major General Pendharkar said the infiltration attempt was spotted early. &quot;Ambushes were laid and the infiltrator eliminated. The body was recovered, with one AK rifle, ammunition, and seven grenades. Surveillance of the area is still in progress,&quot; he said.</p>
<p>
A search of his belongings revealed a Pakistan national ID card and vaccination certificates issued by that country&#39;s Ministry of Health. The photo on the card shows the man in a Pakistan armed forces uniform.</p>

Gen Pendharkar said the incident clearly establishes that Pakistan continues to sponsor cross-border terror. A hotline communication has been made to the Pakistan Army from our side, asking them to take back the body of the killed individual,&quot; said Gen Pendharkar.</p>
