New Delhi denies two persons died in Indian firing across LoC

India today described as false and baseless reports emanating from Pakistan that two persons were killed and 15 injured in two separate incidents of firing by Indian troops across the Line of Control in Pak-occupied Kashmir.

A defence ministry spokesman in New Delhi said that there was no truth in these reports as no such incident had taken place on the LoC.

An Associated Press report from Muzaffarabad in Pak-occupied Kashmir, quoting the police, said that two people were killed in a mortar attack on Monday while 15 people were injured in an attack on Sunday.
