The Border Security Force (BSF) has repatriated a mentally unstable Pakistani national who inadvertently crossed into Indian territory in the R.S. Pura sector of Jammu. The individual, identified as Mohd Akram, is a native of Sialkot, Pakistan. No incriminating materials were found in his possession.

BSF personnel detected unusual movement near the International Border (IB) and quickly took the individual into custody. Officials stated that the intruder appeared mentally disturbed, showing no signs of aggressive intent or evidence of any wrongdoing. The apprehension occurred near the Nawapind Border Outpost (BOP).

Following the apprehension, Akram was transferred to a secure facility for a medical evaluation and interrogation. Authorities worked to ascertain whether the border crossing was accidental or unintentional.

This incident highlights the challenges of managing the complex terrain along the IB, where inadvertent crossings can occur due to mental health issues or other reasons. The BSF emphasizes that all suspicious crossings are handled with a standard response protocol to ensure the safety of both the individual and security forces. The BSF's vigilance and swift action ensured the safety and security of the border.

In a similar incident on September 7, 2025, the BSF apprehended another Pakistani intruder in the same R.S. Pura sector who also appeared to be mentally unstable.

These events underscore the ongoing need for vigilance and adherence to border security protocols, especially considering the potential for inadvertent crossings due to mental health issues. They also highlight the BSF's commitment to maintaining the sanctity of the border while dealing with such situations in a humane manner.
