Summary The continuous violation of ceasefire agreement has terrorised locals.

MUZAFFARABAD (Dunya News) - Indian army continued violation of ceasefire agreement and resorted to unprovoked firing on Friday, killing one Pakistani and injuring two others at the Line of Control.

Assistant Commissioner Kotli, Azad Kashmir, said that a 13-year-old boy was killed and two men were injured when Indian troops opened fire in Goyi Sector in Red Kathar area near the LoC.

Earlier, the India army shelled Pakistani areas in Nakial Sector in Sialkot . Sources said that the sporadic shelling went on since last night on several areas, prompting the Pakistan Army to respond in the befitting manner.

The continuous violation of ceasefire agreement has terrorised locals. The two countries agreed to a ceasefire along the LoC in November 2003, but skirmishes have flared across the heavily-militarised Line of Control (LoC), the de facto border in Kashmir, in recent weeks, with both sides blaming each other for having violated the agreement.
