| New Indian Army chief warns Pakistan over 'soldiers' beheading' |
| 2014-08-02 |
| [ARABNEWS] The new Indian Army chief Gen. Dalbir Singh Suhag on the first day of holding office issued a stern warning to Pakistain referring to alleged beheading incidents of soldiers, stating that the said actions would get an "intense and immediate" response, a report published on the Times of India website said. The alleged beheading of an Indian soldier, Lance Naik Hemraj, by Pak soldiers along the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch sector on Jan. 8, 2013 came under highlight. The newly appointed army chief upon receiving the guard of honor addressed news hounds on the occasion and said that there would be timely reciprocation of such incidents. Dalbir was asked how the Indian side had given a "befitting reply" to Pakistain over Hemraj's alleged beheading as stated by former army chief Gen. Bikram Singh. Responding to this, the new army chief gave a confounding explanation on the subject saying: "It has been done. Please understand that when we use force, that use is from tactical to operational to strategic levels." The Indian side has accused Pak special forces of beheading Hemraj and mutilating the body of Lance Naik Sudhakar Singh. Islamabad has repeatedly denied that Pak troops have been involved in any attacks, also claiming that India has been using "propaganda" to divert attention from a deadly raid it had conducted on a military post leaving a Pak soldier dead and another injured. |
