The Indian army has offered to return bodies of a Pakistani commando and terrorist killed in a firefight in Jammu and Kashmir’s Keran sector last week.

Indian army sources said the Pakistani army has been asked to approach with a white flag and take over the bodies for last rites. The Pakistani Army is yet to respond.

The two were among four killed when a group of Pakistani soldiers and terrorists attacked an army border post along the Line of Control (LoC) in Keran sector. The commando is said to be a member of Pakistan’s Special Service Group.

The army suspects the attackers were part of Pakistan’s Border Action Team, or BAT which has in the past carried out hit jobs near the border before returning to Pakistan, sometimes under the cover of firing from Pakistani posts.
