India lodges strong protest with Pak over killing of 3 soldiers

NEW DELHI: India on Tuesday summoned a senior official of the Pakistan High Commission here and lodged a strong protest over the killing of three of its soldiers during an infiltration bid by Pakistani terrorists in the Sunderbani sector of Jammu and Kashmir two days ago.

In a statement, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said the provocative action by Pakistan revealed Islamabad’s complicity in aiding and abetting terrorism and exposed the hollowness of its deceitful claims of promoting a constructive engagement with India.

“A senior official in the High Commission for Pakistan in New Delhi was summoned to the MEA and a demarche was made lodging strong protest at the fatal casualties of Indian soldiers during an attempted cross border infiltration on October 21 by Pakistani terrorists in Sunderbani Sector,” the MEA said.
