Police official Ashfaq Hussain said today that shelling by Indian troops overnight hit a house in the Fatehpur area in Haveli district in Pakistan-controlled part of Kashmir, causing the casualties.
Hussain says the shelling also wounded two other people who were inside the house.
He says Pakistani forces returned the fire.
Muhammad Shabbir, a resident in the Chakoti area, says both sides exchanged fire.
The two sides frequently trade fire across the heavily militarized Line of Control and blame each other for violating a 2003 cease-fire agreement.
