The pilot would have been killed by the locals if it was not for Pakistan army arriving on time. We are following this closely on our Arabic forum, we already reached 50 pages.
Pilot emptied his pistol on locals. He was first spotted by a 70 years old man and engaged by him first.
As a response Indian pilot start shooting without even clarifying, if he fell in India or Pakistan.
After his gun was empty locals apprehended him, but i think at the same time Pak Army arrived and he was not harmed beyond a single punch.
He surely does not qualify to be a prisoner of war.
Following law of Pak state rules.... locals who were shot at, can register a report for shooting incidence against Indian pilot, and than he has to face the local courts for some time. Let's see what happens to him, but Pakistan has long history of returning Indian soldiers and pilots in good faith.
