Pak. denies its soldiers were killed

ISLAMABAD, SEPT. 2. Pakistan has denied that eight of its soldiers were killed in exchange of fire with Indian troops along the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch and Rajouri sectors yesterday but admitted that the two countries exchanged fire.

A defence spokesman said reports that eight of its soldiers were killed in gunfire between Indian and Pakistani troops were ``fabricated''. He, however, admitted that firing took place in the areas mentioned by India.
