How Did He Enter India?

As per people, he entered India during the night of August 24-25. The BSF discovered his footprints during routine patrolling, which led to a search operation and his subsequent arrest in Jadpa village, which comes under the area of Sedwa police station.

Confirming his arrest, Circle Officer in Chohtan Kritika Yadav revealed, that they are awaiting a detailed report from the BSF before proceeding with a formal case. Currently, the suspect is being questioned by border security force.
