It seems that the revenge play is not going to stop between India and Pakistan. In another shocking, incident, Pakistan troops killed three Indian soldiers and mutilated one of the soldier's bodies at Machil sector in Kashmir’s Kupwara district along the Line of Control (LoC) on Tuesday.

This led to Indian army vowing  “heavy retribution” on Pakistan soon.

The Army’s Northern Command tweeted: “3 soldiers killed in action on LoC in Machil. The body of one soldier mutilated, retribution will be heavy for this cowardly act”.

This is the second offensive incident in the same sector in less than a month. Army sources said, "the soldier whose body was mutilated was part of a counter-infiltration patrol party that was ambushed by a group of armed intruders, believed to be members of Pakistan’s ‘Border Action Team’ (BAT) or terrorists backed by it in the northernmost district."

Defense Minister was soon briefed about the killings. “It is a numbers game now and it is just a question of a few days when we do what we have to do,” said an enraged Army official, adding that "the operation is typical of Pakistan’s BAT which often operates with the terrorists along the LoC."

"On October 29, infiltrating terrorists had mutilated the body of 30-year-old Sepoy Mandeep Singh, who was killed in a brief firefight with them along the LoC in the same sector. After mutilating the body, the terrorists ran back into Pakistan-Occupied-Kashmir, under cover fire provided by Pakistan’s Army," officials said.
