In the wake of the brutal Krishna Ghati incident where Indian soldiers were mutilated by the Pakistan Army, the Indian Army has been strengthening its counter-infiltration grid along the Line of Control to hunt for terrorists.
Last week, Pakistan Army carried out unprovoked Rocket and Mortar firing on two forward posts on the line of control in Krishna Ghati Sector.
A BAT action was launched on a patrol operating in between the two posts.
In an un-soldierly act by the Pakistan Army the bodies of two Indian soldiers in the patrol were mutilated.
