However, the vehicle did not stop. They then signalled the Maruti car whose driver stopped thinking that army personnel were conducting a search. When they tried to snatch the car from him, the driver resisted and was shot at. They then moved towards the police station in the car," a Punjab Police officer said here.Security and intelligence agencies have tracked the global positioning system (GPS) sets, recovered from the terrorists, to Shakargarh area of Pakistan near the India-Pakistan border. The GPS track indicated that the terrorists began their journey from the Pakistan side on Sunday and entered Indian territory.
