Pakistan has denied the incident and termed the reports as false and baseless.
Last month, terrorists helped by Pakistani troops mutilated the body of 27-year-old Sepoy Mandeep Singh before running back into Pakistan Occupied Kashmir.
Eighteen soldiers, including five from the Border Security Force, have died in firing from Pakistan while India says it has killed at least 29 Pakistani troops in retaliation.
There has been a spurt in ceasefire violations since the September surgical strikes, when Indian soldiers crossed over the Line of Control and destroyed staging areas for terrorists who were getting ready to enter India to carry out a series of attacks.
The strikes were seen as India’s response to the Uri attack in which 19 soldiers were killed by terrorists from Pakistan. After the attack, the army said it reserved the right to respond to any cross-border terror attack “at the time and place of our own choosing”.
