Pak army participated actively in mutilation of Indian soldiers: Jaitley

New Delhi: The blood samples collected by the Indian investigative agencies confirmed that the mutilation of two army jawans on the LoC was carried out with the "active participation of the Pakistani Army".

Defence Minister Arun Jaitley, while talking to media on Wednesday, said that the denial by Pakistan of involvement in the killings of Indian soldiers carried no credibility.

"I think the denial itself carries no credibility because the entire gambit of circumstances clearly indicates that this barbaric act of first killing two of our soldiers and then mutilating their bodies has been carried out with active participation of the (Pakistani) Army," said Jaitley.

Pakistan high commissioner Abdul Basit has been informed about the same by India's foreign secy S Jaishankar.

He was also told that appropriate action should be taken against the soldiers and commanders responsible for the act.
