A drunk NRI from Canada tried to get into Pakistan ramming through Indian and Pakistan check-post gates at the Wagah border on Monday.
He rammed his SUV through the Indian gate successfully, entered the zero line but failed to breach the Pakistani side of the border, reports Dawn.
The NRI, who has not been identified, is from Canada and is under the custody of Indian authorities.
The Pakistanis reportedly took away his SUV but returned it later on the request of BSF officials.
His drunken adventure badly damaged Indian gate and dented Pakistan's, says Dawn.
The Indian is lucky to be alive. A suicide bomber killed 60 people on the Pak side of the border last November. Since then both the troops are on high alert and would be more than happy to shoot down anyone acting suspiciously.
