A Pakistani man who returned home after being released by Iraqi hostage-takers said Saturday he saw three fellow captives beheaded.
Amjad Hafeez, 26, who worked as a driver in Iraq for an American firm, was freed on July 2 after eight days in captivity. He arrived home Friday.
Hafeez said the kidnappers had locked him in a small room soon after abducting him.
"After three days, I was taken to a room where two foreigners and an Iraqi were killed by a fat Iraqi man with sword," he told The Associated Press.
He said all three victims were beheaded, and that the two foreigners were "English-speaking people" who were crying, weeping and begging for their lives.
Hafeez said the deaths occurred on June 27. (albawaba.com)
