Security guards 'were shot dead'
Updated on 30 June 2009
Two British hostages whose bodies were flown home from Iraq last week are thought to have been shot dead, a coroner has said.
Inquests into the deaths of security guards Jason Swindlehurst, 38, and Jason Creswell, 39, are likely to be opened next week, a spokesman for the Wiltshire Coroner said.
He said post-mortem examinations had yet to be concluded but added that it was likely that the men had died from gunshot wounds.
