May 01, 2017 15:21

Pakistan mutilated the bodies of 2 Indian soldiers. A statement released by the army said that the Pakistan army carried out unprovoked rocket firing on two forward posts along the Line of Control.

The soldiers who were killed were part of a team on patrol between two forward posts in Udhampur along the Line of Control that were attacked by Pakistan.

Today's developments will add to the seething tension between India and Pakistan at a time when an Indian national, Kulbhushan Jadhav, has been sentenced to death by a Pakistani army court which convicted him of espionage. India has denied the accusations; diplomats have been denied access to Jadhav, a former naval officer, more than 15 times.
