Bodies of two Pakistanis killed in Iraq flown home



Islamabad, May 30 (DPA) The bodies of two Pakistani nationals killed in an attack on a US military camp in Iraq's capital Baghdad were flown home early Tuesday.

Pakistani authorities received the bodies of Nasar Iqbal Mattu and Muneer Ahmed flown on board a Kuwaiti Airways flight at the Lahore International airport and handed them over to their relatives.

Moving scenes were witnessed at the airport as the grieved family members sobbed and held each other in tears.

Mattu, a labourer, and Ahmad, an electrician, died when their living quarters in the US military camp reportedly came under mortar attack on May 22.

They were to be buried in their ancestral towns later in the day.

Meanwhile, there was no word on the fate of another Pakistani national who went missing while travelling in Fallujah.

Shafiq, who reportedly travelled to Iraq on April 4, was working as a driver with a Kuwaiti company, Mubarrad Transport.

A foreign office spokesman said Monday Shafiq's company informed the Pakistani mission in Kuwait the convoy in which he was travelling came under attack near Fallujah on April 10 and he was kidnapped and assumed dead.

The information, however, could not be confirmed and his fate is still uncertain.

The Pakistani government has issued advisories to its nationals against travelling to Iraq in the wake of deteriorating security situation there.

But despite security warnings, an unknown number of Pakistanis remain in Iraq, employed at higher wages for operating in the war zone.
