Srinagar, January 13: Pakistani troops have thanked the Indian Army for its gesture in repatriating a soldier who had inadvertently crossed into North Kashmir last month.
"Thank you very much. We appreciate this friendly gesture. We offer thanks for this and I am sure this gesture is actually a true reflection of the ceasefire agreement," Pakistani delegation leader Lt Col Mazhar said at a flag meeting held on December 30. The Pakistani jawan -- Sarfaraz Ahmed of Mujahid brigade, a paramilitary force -- was handed over to Pakistani authorities after the Army was convinced that he had accidentally strayed into Indian territory.
An Army spokesman said that the Pakistani soldier was also presented a watch, five kg of sweets and dry fruits, a hand-stitched carpet and a Quran stand. Ahmed had strayed into the Indian territory on December 28, 2009.
