Pakistan condemns killing of two nationals in Iraq ISLAMABAD, Thursday (Reuters) Pakistan on Thursday denounced the killing of two of its nationals by militants in Iraq as a crime against humanity and Islam. Foreign Ministry spokesman Masood Khan said the killings had devastated the families of the victims and the Pakistani nation. "We strongly condemn these brutal murders," Khan said. "The captors have committed a crime against humanity, against Islam and against the people of Pakistan and the people of Iraq. Al Jazeera television said on Wednesday that militants in Iraq had killed two Pakistani hostages who disappeared last week and have released an Iraqi. The Arabic language television channel said it had received a videotape showing the killings but would not air it as it was too gruesome. "No reason, no cause could have justified killing of these poor migrant workers," Khan said. |
