NEW DELHI: The Pakistani army’s treatment of two Indian soldiers who were killed along the border in Kashmir was “inhuman”, Indian Defence Minister A K Antony said on Wednesday.

“Pakistan army’s action is highly provocative. The way they treated the dead body of the soldiers, Indian soldiers, is inhuman,” he said after reports and military sources said one of the troops had been beheaded on Tuesday.

“We will convey our protest to the Pakistan government and our DGMO (director general of military operations) will talk to his counterpart in Pakistan. They are closely monitoring the situation,” he told reporters.

COMMENTS

  1. Pakistan Army also need to leave in peace and they are at peace when they are at war.. Nothing surprising , they haven’t spared their own country made it a battleground so what can India expect from them.

  2. What about killing of Pakistani Jawan, I guess that does not appear in a foreign funded dawn

  3. who says humans lives in Pakistan…

  4. I am an Indian and I visited Lahore in 2005. I was pleasantly surprised to see the love and hospitality of local Pakis. I can also vouch for most of our Indians who would never want such sort of border incidents. It’s sad to read about such incidents happening along LOC. I must admit that sometimes I feel these are just political propaganda. It shows how distant we civilians are from our governments.

  5. What were the Indian soldiers doing on Pakistani territory??

  6. no point in talking and lodging protest. the fittest reply is that attack the Pakistani post, from where their slodiers came, and capture that, as India did in siachin

  7. Until yesterday, the Indians claimed unprovoked fire by the Pakistani side. Their response resulted in one Pakistani soldier dead and another seriously wounded. Today, they are crying over the inhumane treatment of the Indian soldiers at the hands of the Pakistani side. How exactly did the Indian soldiers ended up in Pakistani hands as a result of long range artillery fire.

    Did the Indians enter Pakistan? Yes, they did. What did they expect would happen to them if they were caught ?

  8. Too sad. Hope this does’nt lead to a skirmish.

  9. Aren’t we fool who expect human treatment from country like pakistan..?? Aur karo aman ki asha..!!!

    • Raja Sb, thats exactly what the perpetrators of this crime wanted you to say. As a Pakistani I am shocked by this cruelty but i am also certain that regular Pak army troops were not behind this barbaric act. Time will tell. But if the peace process goes into reverse gear then they have already succeeded.

    • You certainly are fools, no doubt. You first kill a Pakistani soldier and then getting burnt, start crying…not only fools but cry babbies too

  10. Come On Indian Army. You can do better than this rather than crying from a roof top. This is a matter of pride and honour for the Indian Army which anyway is least appreciated by the Cong Government. So my suggestion will be for you to send a Gorkha into their territory and he will come back with a Pak head; send an Assamese and he will come back with their heart and finally send the Madrasi and he will come back with their Genitals. Thats it. Matter solved and both the armies can go to their bunkers.

  11. There are enough domestic problems in Pakistan so government want to shift the main focus of common people from corruption and domestic violence to India .Even a small kid can understand this tactics.

  12. Now all that is left is for the Indian Govt: to declare that they have a Barbarian neighbourhood in the west…….

  13. Indian Defence Minister forgot to mention that Sunday’s attack by indian soldiers was “humane”!!!

  14. Ahmed Sultan (India)

    Peace process should not start till Pakistan stops doing stuffs like this.

    • But who will convince the spineless,shameless,worthless and disgustiong Indian government?

    • Come on man…First day the news was the Indian army killed 3 pakistanis and now india is coming back with this rubbish…

      both governments are lying to people blatantly in midst of pending elections…

      • What about when America bombs our soldiers and it turns out to be a mistake. Nobody asks any questions then. No one protests either.

  15. Has it occurred to the Indians that the attackers might not have been Pakistani soldiers but dressed as one.I doubt that the Pakistani force will stoop to such low levels.

    • C Bhattacharya, INDIA

      Hats off to your conclusion about Pakistani force…You must have forgotten what Pakistani Army troops did to Talibans in SWAT after Taliban Uprising about 2 years back…

      • And Bhattacharya your point is? I mean the taliban were actually beheading Pakistani citizens, so what should the army do, award them?

  16. seems like another kargil war is on the agenda table..remember it started with mutilating Indian soilders..

  17. Keep protesting… no one is listening

  18. at some point india will be forced to react which willmark our return to stone age for which pakistan will be mainly responsible

  19. AND!!! it starts again. So what’s on the agenda table this time.

  20. I think he is pretty close..some of the Indian politicians better be clear in their mind that the guys accross the borders are indeed not ‘human’. Also occassional actions like these from the Pakistanis are actually good in clearing some Hindu minds about dreaming of ‘normal’ relationship. Instead of throwing civilised jargons picked up from western world ie ‘unacceptable behaviour’ , ‘inhuman’ and crying like a little girl, the Hindus should focus on paying these guys back in their own currency..thats the only trade they will acknowledge.

  21. What can you expect from an Army which works with jihadis?

  22. pakistan should not do these type of things. recently India have allowed pak cricket team to visit india but pak did not learn any lesson from the past.

  23. Look who is talking what…..”inhuman”.

  24. Beaheading the head and taking it along .. is inhuman !!!

  25. Isn’t there enough mess within the Pakistan border?
