Kashmir Police could be deployed on Nepal border to screen militants

New Delhi, March 26:  India's home ministry is examining the possibility of deploying Jammu and Kashmir Police along the Nepal border in the wake of recent controversy over the arrest of suspected Hizbul Mujahideen militant








There are two conflicting versions on Shah's arrest. While Delhi Police claim he was part of a terrorist plot attempting to launch a fidayeen (suicide) attack in the capital, Jammu and Kashmir Police say he was on his way back home from Pakistan to surrender under the rehabilitation policy of the government.

The sources said if the move goes through, Jammu and Kashmir police will be deployed along with Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) on the India-Nepal border and will help in identifying the Kashmiri youth who have been using Nepal as an alternative route to come back to the state.
