QUETTA, June 24: The bodies of two more Pakistanis, who were killed in Afghanistan by armed bandits, were brought to Quetta on Saturday.

This is the second such incident in the past 10 days in which Pakistanis were targeted in that country.

The two men, Jumma Khan Hazara and Ashfaq Hussain, worked as masons and had gone to Kandahar a few days ago to find jobs.

They were on their way to Kabul from Kandahar on Thursday when their vehicle was stopped by a group of men, who looted them. They were killed after they offered resistance. Their driver was left alive.

Bodies of both the victims, who belonged to the Hazara tribe, were recovered by the Afghan authorities from the Kabul-Kandahar road and later handed over to Pakistani officials at the Chaman border on Saturday. Both the victims belong to Hazara tribe.
