Wednesday, January 19, 2005 (Islamabad):


Pakistan has denied violating the ceasefire along the Line of Control in Poonch.

Reacting to reports of mortar firing by its soldiers, Pakistan's defence spokesperson Major Gen Shaukat Sultan told news agencies that no firing has taken place from its side.

Pakistani troops also heard some explosions in the Indian territory, he added.

But the Indian Army confirmed last night that the Pakistani Army had fired a dozen mortar rounds in Poonch.
