Pakistan brutally kills BSF jawan, attempts to behead him. Should India boycott Asia Cup match with Pakistan?




In a dastardly act of cross-border terrorism by the Pakistan Army, the mutilated body of a missing Border Security Force (BSF) jawan was found along the India-Pakistan border in Jammu on Tuesday, news reporting agency PTI said. The slain jawan, who had gone missing a few days ago, was brutally murdered by the Pakistan Border Action Team.

According to a Times Now report, the BSF jawan was ambushed, his weapon was confiscated and his throat was slit. The body was also found with multiple knife wounds, escalating the brutality of the murder. A barbaric attempt to behead the jawan was also made after he was shot by a sniper, according to reports.

“The body of the jawan was found by a search party. It is suspected that he was shot with a precise aim by the Pakistani side when they were clearing the area near the fence,” a senior official told the news agency.

With this ghastly incident emerging ahead of the much-awaited India-Pakistan cricket match in the ongoing Asia Cup, Indian citizens have begun questioning whether India should engage with the hostile neighbour in sporting field encounters while India’s troops are being mercilessly killed at the border. Sources have also said that Pakistan Prime Minister and former cricketer Imran Khan is expected to attend the match in Dubai on Wednesday.

Three days ago, one soldier was injured in Nowshera sector of Rajouri district in Jammu region after Pakistan Army opened fire on India forward positions along the Line of Control. Pakistan Army's heavy cross-border firing was retaliated by the valiant Indian Army.
