Indian soldiers did not behead Pakistani troops, says Antony

New Delhi, Jan 31: A report published in The Hindu  that Indian soldiers had tortured and decapitated Pakistani troops along the Line of Control (LoC) was totally baseless, Defence Minister A.K. Antony said Thursday.A day



He said "Even though after the second round of DGMO-level talks the tension around LoC has reduced, we cannot lower our guard and we have to be vigilant 24x7.



"We have to take all precautions to face any eventuality and we are advising everybody that do not be hasty about normalisation. You wait and watch and then only move forward. That is our approach," he said.

The Hindu on Wednesday had reported classified Pakistani protests to the UN accusing Indian troops of torture and decapitation of at least 12 Pakistani soldiers in cross-LoC raids since 1998.
