[DAWN] A soldier who was injured in an exchange of fire between Pak and Indian troops along the Line of Control on Wednesday evening departed this vale of tears, the Indian military said today.Another shootout coming next week. Colonel SD Goswami, a front man for the Indian Army accused Pak troops of opening "unprovoked fire" at Indian positions in the Poonch sector along the LoC, some 200 kilometres southwest of Srinagar. "Pak troops violated the ceasefire again during which our soldier was injured who died later," Goswami told AFP, adding that the Indian side had returned fire. Earlier in July, Pak officials blamed Indian Border Security Forces (BSF) for killing four civilians in two separate incidents of cross-border firing in Sialkot's Chaprar sector and Rawalakot's Neza Pir sector.
