India summons Pak envoy over border killings

Islamabad refutes claim, suggests UN inquiry

AFP, New Delhi
India yesterday delivered a dressingdown to Islamabad's envoy to Delhi as it accused Pakistan's army of beheading one of two soldiers killed in Kashmir, but both sides warned against inflaming tensions.
While Pakistan insisted no such incident had taken place and suggested a UN inquiry be held, India denounced the "inhuman" treatment of the pair who were killed two days after a Pakistani soldier was also slain in the Kashmir region.
As India's government mulled over its response, Foreign Minister Salman Khurshid struck a note of caution and warned against exacerbating the situation.
Khurshid said Pakistan's ambassador Salman Bashir had been "spoken to in very strong terms" after he was summoned for an angry rebuke
over the killings.
But in a subsequent press conference, Khurshid said that "whatever has happened, should not be escalated".
The two Indian soldiers died after a firefight erupted in disputed Kashmir on Tuesday. The Indian army said a patrol moving in fog discovered Pakistani troops about 500 metres inside Indian territory.
In a sign of a desire for revenge among troops on the ground, a Indian officer said it was "now a matter of prestige, the battalion has to regain its honour”.
But amid the chorus of condemnation, Pakistan's Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar appeared on Indian television to issue a firm denial and criticise the statements by authorities in Delhi.
"Let me just say that we are a bit appalled at some statements that are coming in from India because the
government of Pakistan has absolutely rejected that any such incident took place," she told India's CNN-IBN network.
Khar said Pakistan tempered its language after the death of one of its soldiers on Sunday in a border skirmish and India should have followed suit
"We can ask a third party to do investigation on this, you know that UN military observers exist, we can call them... We must not all go back to having a go at each other."
Army sources said there had been further exchanges along the de facto border on Tuesday night which caused no damage and the border was calm yesterday.
Muslim-majority Kashmir is a Himalayan region that India and Pakistan both claim in full but rule in part. It was the cause of two of their three wars since independence from Britain in 1947.
