Army thwarted infiltration attempt by a group of five to six Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) militants at forward village of Balnoi on the Line of Control (LoC) in Mendhar sector of Poonch District in the morning of September 27, killing two militants and forcing others to retreat to Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK), reports Daily Excelsior. Sources identified the slain militants as Abu Mahaz alias Khandari Kashmiri, a ‘divisional commander’ and Abu Anzala alias Abu Tallah Afghani, an ‘area commander’ of the LeT. Both of them were Pakistani nationals and were wearing Army uniform. Official sources said troops observed movement of militants trying to infiltrate into Indian Territory on surveillance gadgets installed between Roshni and Gun Hill Posts at Balnoi sector of Mendhar at 2am. Troops challenged the militants when they reached close to the fence and asked them to surrender. The militants opened firing and made attempts to sneak into this side. A heavy exchange of gun fighting between militants and the troops continued till 3.30am in which two infiltrators were killed. As the Army personnel were engaged in searches, Pakistani troops started heavy firing on Indian positions at 5.30am in an apparent bid to facilitate infiltration by remaining militants. The firing from Pakistan side continued till 8am, sources said. However, an effective retaliation by the troops forced rest of the militants to retreat to PoK. Army didn’t suffer any casualties in the firing. Troops conducted searches on the LoC and recovered bodies of both the slain militants along with a large quantity of arms, ammunition and other items. Recoveries made from the scene of encounter included two AK-47 rifles with 10 magazines and 193 rounds, two pouches, one wireless set with one antenna, two Under Barrel Grenade Launchers (UBGLs), eight UBGL grenades, two Pakistan made water bottles, one medicine kit, two Taiwan made Global Positioning Systems, two Nokia mobile handsets, two Indian SIM cards, Rs 12,000 Indian currency including three notes in 1000 denomination and 18 notes in 500 denomination, one map of Mendhar, one compass, one Matrix sheet, three Chinese hand grenades, one I Com set, one newspaper ‘Zaraar’ of Pakistan, two ‘Halwaal’ company’s juice bottles (also Made in Pakistan) and about 5 kg dry fruits.
