Indian Border Security Force (BSF) opened unprovoked fire yet again on Wednesday, killing a Pakistani citizen in the Shakargarh sector on the Pakistani side of the Line of Control.
The victim, identified as Iftikhar, was shot four times when he accidentally went near the working border between India and Pakistan. Iftikhar is reportedly the third citizen to be killed in recent LoC violations by Indian forces.
On July 20, one person was killed in Mirajke area along the Pakistani side of the Line of Control after BSF allegedly opened fire. The firing also injured three women and a child.
