The Border Security Force (BSF) on Tuesday said it has apprehended a 20-year-old Pakistani man from the Sriganganagar sector in Rajasthan.
Md Waqas was nabbed from along the India-Pakistan International Border in “suspicious circumstances” on Monday evening, the BSF said in a statement.
“During initial questioning, the man revealed that he is a follower of Tehreek-e-Labbaik and entered into India to propagate the ideology of the said outfit,” a spokesperson said, adding that the apprehended man hails from Karampur village in the Bahawalnagar district of Pakistan.
A joint team of intelligence and security agencies is questioning the man and he would be handed over to the local police soon, the officer said.
