Because it's a bogus report from a garbage source (DEBKA) that's being repeated by someone who himself is a garbage source (Loftus)?

no reports have yet solidly stated "WHERE" exactly the IAF picked him up(if it was him).If he was clearly in Indian territory,he would have been dead ages ago.The problem is that the borders India shares with China & Pakistan in that region are high altitude & very rugged terrain,so it's not exactly easy to demarcate or fence.Hence if India (or an American ICBM) were to use force without confirming that he is in Indian territory,there would be a real risk of the Chinese or the Pakis(Who have helped each other over the past 50 years in keeping India tied down to the subcontinent) escalating it into a full scale conflict(something a brief glance of their past history would confirm).
