JAMMU: The Army detained a 25-year-old resident of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch district early Friday.

“The man was identified as Irshad Ahmad. Alert troops found him roaming very close to a forward area in Poonch’s Kirni-Qasba sub-sector and detained him,” said an official source.

The detainee appeared to be “mentally unsound” and may have inadvertently crossed over the border into Indian territory, said sources while adding that all aspects were being investigated.
