SIALKOT: The bomb disposal squad defused on Tuesday a high intensity Indian anti-tank landmine near the bordering village Chahoor-Sabzpeer, Pasrur.

Sialkot District Coordination Officer Dr Asif Tufail told reporters the landmine had landed in the area floating along the swollen Nullah Dek from Indian territory.

He said the landmine weighed 10 kilo, which was spotted by some local people. They alerted the local police, and soon the bomb disposal squad was called in from Sialkot.

This is the third landmine in the two days, spotted and defused in Jandiyaala-Zafarwal and Pindi Dewaniyaan.
