However, the terrorist who was apprehended was shot, and his companions managed to flee the scene. Hussain revealed that he travelled to the same location in 2016 as well, but was unable to strike the army personnel. Hussain was brought here in severe condition, but his life has now been saved, according to Army doctor Rajeev Nair. It will take him a few weeks to fully heal from his bullet wounds, however.

The physician was further questioned about if he thought it was ironic to save the life of a terrorist who had crossed the LoC to attack the Indian Army. He answered, "For us, everyone who comes here is a patient. Being a doctor, it is our primary job to save the life of our patients. We have made the same effort to save his life that we would have made for soldiers or others. Our Indian soldiers even donated his blood and saved his life. This is their valor."
"He (captured terrorist) is still bed-ridden and the Indian soldiers are feeding him to recover," Dr. Nair added. On August 21, the Indian Army apprehended a Pakistani terrorist near the Line of Control in Naushera, Rajouri, Jammu and Kashmir.
