evidence: Abhinandan: Villagers recount dramatic capture of pilot - Published Dramatic new details have emerged about the capture of Indian air force pilot Abhinandan Varthaman by Pakistani forces. [...] After a dogfight in disputed Kashmir on Wednesday morning, India had initially said that all of its pilots were accounted for, contradicting Pakistani claims that they had captured a pilot. But Pakistan's information ministry then released - and later deleted - a video showing the pilot blindfolded and with blood on his face.
