"During the early hours today, security personnel posted at Border Out Post spotted some movement near fencing along two border pillars," said PK Rathore, Commandant of 143 battalion of BSF.

The BSF troops immediately challenged the persons approaching the fencing in an area close to the Zero line, following which the intruders went back towards Pakistan side, Rathore said.

Though they managed to escape under the cover of thick weed in the area, the BSF seized the heroin consignment and the money concealed in a bag.
