The Indian Army late on Friday disclosed that
a terrorist killed in a gun battle with soldiers two days ago was a Pakistan
Army Major.
The dead man, one of three killed in Gurez
(north Kashmir), was named by a defence spokesman as Mohammad Hyder Turkey
of 9th Baluch Battalion. He was identified on the basis of papers on his body.
He was initially thought to be Abu Bilal,
a resident of Gujranwala in Pakistan, but that name apparently was his call
sign.
The three infiltrators are believed to be
part of a LeT operation to get in more terrorists into Kashmir, the defence
spokesman said.
