Crossings along the India-Pakistan border are closely monitored, particularly in districts like Kasur, which share direct borders with Indian states. Past incidents have led to detentions, questioning, and in some cases, diplomatic notifications. Security agencies emphasize strict enforcement to prevent illegal entry and potential security threats.
Police officials at Ganda Singh station said the investigation will review travel records, movement patterns, and intentions of the detainee. The authorities also noted that coordination with border security and intelligence agencies is ongoing to ensure compliance with international border protocols.
No further details have been released regarding charges or court proceedings. Local authorities continue to monitor the area to prevent additional unauthorized crossings.
