A confrontation between Frontier Corps (FC) and Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) personnel prompted the shutdown of pedestrian movement at the Torkham border, disrupting travel between Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Security officials confirmed the suspension of operations at the NADRA checkpoint following the incident, leaving numerous individuals stranded en route to Afghanistan.

Hospital reports indicate that the altercation resulted in five injuries, with the victims receiving care at Landi Kotal Hospital. Their conditions are stable.

The FIA accused FC members of undue involvement in immigration processes. Sources claim the altercation ensued after FC repeatedly interfered despite requests to cease.

In response, FIA immigration staff ceased operations in protest, according to these reports.

FC representatives, however, assert their duty to secure the border, emphasizing vigilant passenger screening for safety reasons.

This closure impacts a critical route connecting Peshawar in Pakistan’s northwest to Jalalabad in Afghanistan’s Nangarhar province and extending to Kabul. The Torkham Crossing is a vital conduit for travellers and commerce between the two nations.
