Indian man crashes car into Wagah-Attari border gate

[Dubious]

It clearly says the gate on at Attari side was badly damaged, so he must have smashed through the gate.

I found that weird...
waht is the gate made of bamboo?

No made of iron. But a 2.5 tonne car, hurling down at 100km/hr can be pretty hard to stop.

Indian man crashes car into Wagah-Attari border gate - Pakistan - DAWN.COM

LAHORE: A speeding sports utility vehicle (SUV), driven by an Indian man, crashed into the Wagah-Attari border gate early on Monday.

The Indian citizen breached security on the Indian side of the border, reportedly crashing a check post and reached zero point of the border. The vehicle came to a stop after ramming into the Pakistani side of the border gate.

The incident raised caution among border officials, and led to the Punjab Rangers writing a letter to the Border Security Forces (BSF) seeking an inquiry into the breach of security, official sources said.

The crash left the gate at Attari "badly damaged" while the Wagah gate was partially damaged, witnesses at the site said.

The driver was arrested by BSF officials while his car was confiscated by Pakistani officials after it entered Pakistani territory, sources said.

The vehicle was returned upon request of the BSF, they added.

The Non-resident Indian (NRI), from Canada, was allegedly drunk when he drove his SUV into the gate at Attari, crossed the Zero Line, and crashed into the gate at the Pakistani side.

The incident comes days after Punjab Rangers had offered sweets and exchanged greetings with their Indian counterparts at Wagah border to mark the Hindu festival of Diwali — in resumption of the customary exchange of good wishes suspended for the last many months due to tensions between the two neighbouring states.

Security was beefed up at the border after a devastating suicide attack at the entrance of the Wagah border parade venue killed 60 people and left more than 110 injured in November last year.

Two militant organisations — outlawed Jundullah and TTP-affiliated Jamaat-ul-Ahrar — had claimed responsibility for the attack.

The front wheel was firmly inside Pakistan. This is an illegal infiltration.

Is the man really Indian or Bangladeshi?

If indeed Indian, he must have had the Indian maps of 1946 or earlier. Just a regular drive from Amritsar to Lahore... Big deal.

Oh wait.

Calm down gents the car was not laden with RDX and explosives.

but it was laden by an indian ewwwww

He should have been stopped before he rammed his car into the gate.

I am more concern about reverse engineered copy of Scorpio.

[Dubious]

So why Indian door was open

he must have had the Indian maps of 1946 or earlier. Just a regular drive from Lahore to Amritsar... Big deal.

One observation. Do these Gates open inside their respective countries or do they open in the no man's land?

Slides, left and right, that's what I believe I saw.

Apparently not as strong as it looks,

Firstly, Surinder Singh, who is a Canadian national, broke the Customs Gate on the outer border, continuing to speed his Scorpio car. He then broke the barricade meters ahead of the Swaran Jyanti Dwar. Not only this, but he also broke the Indian gate at the zero line, inches away from Pakistani Territory.

If he has broken through locked Indian side gate then its miraculous effort ...lol, and still able to hit other side gate

He should have been stopped before he rammed his car into the gate.

Apparently someone was dozing off after some pakora iftari...wait it isnt even ramadan nor do they practice it ....Hmmm...

Not only this, but he also broke the Indian gate at the zero line, inches away from Pakistani Territory.

Surinder Singh - "Damn it, what are these Goddamned gates doing in the middle of the road? Must be the alcohol...let me speed past it...

WHAAAAAM (Indian gate down)

Surinder - "I knew it was just a figment of my imagination. Now who is this guy with a black Gandhi cap in the front? And what's this asterisk wala gate in green? Let me try my old trick"

VROOOOM - DHISSSSH (car comes to a halt)

Conclusion -
The Indian car (Mahindra) is of great quality.
Surinder Singh is hired as a test Tank driver.
