In a surprising development in north Kashmir's Uri sector, the Indian Army apprehended a 22-year-old man from Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) who had crossed the Line of Control (LoC).

The intruder, identified as Zeeshan Ahmad Mir from Painkadi village in PoK's Muzaffarabad district, was caught late Saturday while entering through the Haji Peer range in Silikote area.

The Army stated that the apprehension was handled with restraint, and Mir was handed over to Jammu & Kashmir Police for further legal proceedings.The case has drawn attention online, with a video showing the couple responding to questions from an unidentified person circulating on social media.The incident highlights both the human element in cross-border movements and the sensitive security environment in the Uri sector.
