"On Friday night, a BSF patrol saw a boy near a border post. We took him with us and provided him with food, clothes as well as toys. Yesterday, we returned him safely to his parents in Pakistan," BSF Deputy Commander (Bhuj Range) Himanshu Gaur told PTI today.
The BSF conducted a flag meeting with Pakistani Rangers including Lieutenant Colonel Baig Mirza Laeeq and Deputy Superitendent of Rangers (DSR) Tariq, who expressed their gratitude.
According to an official statement by the BSF, the child was identified as Ali Sajjan Gohar (4), who hailed from Dandari village in Badin district of Pakistan's Sindh Province.
"On the night of December 20, a BSF patrol on the Gujarat frontier found a child crying near the border post, at a distance of 100 yards from the international border, towards the Indian side," a BSF statement said.
