Pakistan dismisses Indian accusations of mutilating soldiers' bodies at LoC

RAWALPINDI: Through a hotline contact established at the Line of Control, Pakistan has made clear to India that no ceasefire violations were carried out from its side, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Tuesday.
According to the military's public relations wing, a local commanders-level hotline contact was established at Rawalakot-Poonch sector on the LoC last night between Pakistan and Indian Army authorities. The Indian Army authorities were told there have been no ceasefire violations from the Pakistan side nor mutilation of Indian soldiers’ bodies.
Indian authorities were also told that there was unnecessary media hype following allegations of killing of two members of an Indian Army patrol near the LoC.
Pakistan remains fully committed to maintaining peace and tranquility along the LoC and expects same from the other side of the border. It also hopes prudence is exercised and no steps are taken that may lead to vitiating of the environment and affect peace along the LoC, the ISPR statement added.
