Washington, June 12 - The Clinton Administration has said that reports of
Pakistan handing over six mutilated bodies of Indian soldiers are
"disturbing" and it is seeking more information.

At the State Department, the Spokesman, Mr. James Foley, was replying to a
question if the United States was trying to get India and Pakistan together
as things were getting "nastier". "Indian air and ground attacks continue in
the Kargil area of Kashmir against infiltrators from Pakistan... We are
aware of ...press reports that indicate Pakistan has turned over six
mutilated bodies of Indian soldiers. We find these reports disturbing and we
are seeking more information. I would note that Pakistan has denied these
reports. We don't, for our part, have independent information on the reports
and, therefore, can offer no judgment", Mr. Foley responded.

The spokesman went on to say that the incident underscored the urgency of
the need for India and Pakistan to speak directly with each other about the
current hostilities in Kashmir.

"The United States strongly supports talks between India and Pakistan to
resolve this latest dispute. We remain in contact with both Indian and
Pakistani governments to express our strong concern, to urge them to show
restraint and to respect the line of control that they agreed to over 25
years ago. We also urge them to prevent the fighting from spreading beyond
the Kargil sector, and to work together to reduce tensions", Mr. Foley
remarked.
