UK hostage bodies identified
Updated on 21 June 2009
The Foreign Office says the dead British hostages handed over to authorities in Iraq are "highly likely" to be Jason Creswell, originally from Glasgow, and Jason Swindlehurst, originally from Skelmersdale.
The next of kin of the two dead men have been informed and they are coming to terms with their loss today.
The families of five men captured in Baghdad in 2007 were told this morning whether their relatives were still alive after forensics identified the remains of the two bodies given to authorities on Friday.
