Corpse of Beheaded Westerner Found in Iraq
By Andrew Marshall
BAGHDAD, Iraq (Reuters) - The corpse of a decapitated Westerner was found in Iraq Thursday and Sofia said it was investigating whether the body was one of two Bulgarians seized by militants loyal to al Qaeda ally Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.
In Kuwait, the transport company that employs three Indians, three Kenyans and an Egyptian also kidnapped by guerrillas in Iraq said it would do all it can to win their release.
The announcement of their kidnapping Wednesday sparked a new hostage crisis just a day after guerrillas freed a Filipino driver following Manila's capitulation to their demands.
Their captors say they will behead one hostage every three days unless the firm, Kuwait and Gulf Link Transport Company, stops doing business in Iraq.
