British Red Cross worker beheaded in Pakistan A British humanitarian worker has been killed in Pakistan after being kidnapped earlier this year, the Foreign Office has confirmed. Khalil Dale's beheaded body was found dumped by a roadside on Sunday in the southwestern Pakistan city of Quetta, police and Red Cross officials said. Foreign Secretary William Hague reacted to Mr Dale's death by saying: "I utterly condemn the kidnapping and killing of Mr Dale, and send my deepest condolences to his family and loved ones as they come to terms with their tragic and distressing loss. This was a senseless and cruel act, targeting someone whose role was to help the people of Pakistan, and causing immeasurable pain to those who knew Mr Dale. My thoughts are with them, and with all those who have dedicated their lives to assisting the world's most vulnerable people through the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. Mr Dale had worked for the British Red Cross in Somalia, Afghanistan and Iraq before coming to Pakistan. He had been managing a health programme for Baluchistan for almost a year when he was abducted, the Red Cross said in a statement.
