Pak planted landmines on Indian side: Army

Pakistan has planted anti-personnel mines along walking tracks between forward posts on the Indian side of the Line of Control (LoC) to target soldiers, the Army said Wednesday.
  
The Northern Command Media Cell released pictures which showed the mines with marking of Pakistan Ordnance Factory (PoF) of Lot No. 82 and with inscription of 'SGO Sargodha'.
  
The pictures had been handed over to Pakistan Army authorities as proof of its 'viscious' designs during Sunday's flag meeting in Poonch sector of Jammu and Kashmir, which has witnessed continued ceasefire violations by Pakistan and killing of two Indian soldiers.
  
General Officer Commanding-in-Chief (GOC-in-C), Northern Command, Lt Gen K T Parnaik had said yesterday in Akhnoor, about 45 kms from here, that mines have been planted by the Pakistan Army along the walking tracks between India forward posts along LoC to target Indian troops.
  
Army sources said several soldiers have been injured in anti-personnel mine blasts along LoC in the past three to four months.
  
On the January eight killing of two Indian soldiers, Parnaik had said the decapitation of one of the soldiers by Pakistani Army regulars was an act of "grave provocation".
  
India had Tuesday accused Pakistan of five ceasefire violations after the flag meeting of top military commanders of the two countries to de-escalate tension along LoC but said it will "not act in haste or anger".
