Does anyone know about the militants who crossed the Indo-Pak border and entered Dera Baba Nanak area of Punjab, demanded food and shelter from the locals and later killed two Punjab Police jawans?

I heard the news from some discusssing it, just wanted to make sure if its right?

Yupp, I read the news in Ajit Jalandhar or The Tribune.

The guess is that there are 5, and these 2 were earlier spotted in Kathua region. But they were able to flee from their in darkness.

Chandigarh: Punjab has been put on high alert after two Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) militants were killed in an encounter on Sunday, raising fears that there might be more militants around.

Two policemen also died in the encounter that lasted three hours in Bamial sector of Gurdaspur district along the Indo-Pak border. Police recovered two AK-47 rifles, eight grenades and 700 rounds of fire.

The encounter with the heavily-armed militants took place early in the morning after villagers told police that “two persons dressed like commandos were inquiring about the region”.

This was the first militant-police gun battle in Punjab in the past 15 years.

Bamial sector in Gurdaspur has Punjab, J&K and Pakistan on its three sides. A group of LeT militants had reportedly intruded the region on April 19 and had also fired at a BSF post. Police believe the intruders were heading towards Jammu and Kashmir when they were intercepted.

Gurdaspur, April 25: Two policemen and two militants were killed in a fierce gun battle early Sunday near the India-Pakistan international border in Punjab's Gurdaspur district, police said.

Punjab police officials said that both militants were gunned down after a police team patrolling the border belt in the Bhamial sector spotted them in the early hours of the morning.

"Two Punjab police personnel were killed and one injured in the gun battle," a police official said here.

The identity of the killed militants is being established, officials said.

The shootout took place near Norat Jaimal Singh area of Gurdaspur. The area is close to Punjab's border with Jammu and Kashmir.

Police and security agencies have launched a search operation in the area to see if any more militants are hiding there, officials said.

The Bhamial sector is the same area where rockets were fired from the Pakistan side and over 10 metres of the barbed wire fencing inside Indian territory was blown up near the international border April 19.

The Border Security Force (BSF), which mans the 553-km long barbed wire fenced border between India and Pakistan in Punjab, retaliated with light and medium weapons. Between 800-900 rounds of ammunition were fired then.

Incidents of rockets being fired from the Pakistan side and gun fire are increasing in the Amritsar and Gurdaspur districts of Punjab in recent months. Such incidents took place in July and September last year (Attari border belt in Amritsar district) and again in January (Attari border) and in Gurdaspur's Bhamial sector this year.
