Further, the statement issued by its High Commission in New Delhi said, “Pakistan strongly rejects the Indian allegation of an attack across the LoC on its military patrol in which two Indian soldiers were claimed to have been killed. These are baseless and unfounded allegations.”

The details released by the Indian Army said that the two Indian soldiers killed were Lance Naiks, Hemraj and Sudhakar Singh. They were chopped off and one was taken away by Pakistani intruders.
Such attack was done by Pakistani soldiers in 1999 Kargil War when they attacked Capt Saurabh Kalia and his team in Kaksar sector.
