The Indian Army on Tuesday foiled an infiltration bid across the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir's Rajouri district, an officer said.

"Three unidentified terrorists were trying to sneak in across the LoC in the general area of Sukhtao Nala in Sunderbani sector of Rajouri district at about 6.30 a.m. and were detected 30 metres on our side," a senior army officer told IANS.

He said the three infiltrators, clad in 'Pathani suits', were challenged by troops whereupon they opened fire while running back towards the LoC.

"Our troops fired at them and foiled the infiltration bid. No casualties were reported," the officer said.
