Delhi: 4 intruders scale NSG perimeter wall; FIR lodged

The NSG sentry fired a round in the air to challenge the intruders, even as they were being chased by local police.

New Delhi: Four persons have been apprehended for allegedly jumping over the perimeter wall of the highly secure and sensitive National Security Guard camp here, putting the security apparatus into a tizzy which led to firing of a few rounds.

Officials said the incident occurred at about 8:30 pm on Monday when about four suspected cattle smugglers jumped over the perimeter wall of the National Security Guard (NSG) garrison and were confronted by a sentry on duty.

The NSG sentry fired a round in the air to challenge the intruders, even as they were being chased by local police and civilians after they broke a police barrier while trying to smuggle out some cattle from the Manesar area here.

An exchange of fire also took place between the suspected smugglers and local police before they entered the commando forces' camp, they said.

The NSG, the sources said, has filed an FIR with the police with regard to the incident, even as they said the intruders who entered the garrison were rounded up and apprehended by police.

The NSG garrison here is base to the crack commando teams of counter-terror and counter-hijack operations, and also hosts the elite forces' training centre.
