Courier-Mail - Mutilated Body Was Not Margaret Hassan
Topics: Middle East News and PerspectivesPosted by Backcountry Conservative and DiggersRealm sourcing the Courier-Mail article:
DENTAL records have shown a mutilated body discovered in the besieged Iraqi city of Fallujah was not kidnapped Irish-born CARE Australia worker Margaret Hassan.
The findings cast doubts over the fate of the 59-year-old head of CARE International's work in Iraq, a position funded by CARE Australia, who was kidnapped by insurgents on her way to work on October 19.

No group admitted holding Mrs Hassan and no contact was made with her kidnappers, but a grainy video received by al-Jazeera television in mid-November showed a blindfolded woman in an orange suit being shot.

No hostage taking in Iraq has resulted in so much controversy and so many conspiracy theories as that of the kidnapping of Margaret Hassan. She has been reported to be killed by terrorists, killed by British agents , and had her kidnapping disavowed by rebel commanders in Fallujah, while at the same time claimed to be alive and somewhere in Fallujah. DiggersRealm previously provided a roundup of the events surrounding her abduction. So still, we don't know what really happened to Margaret Hassan, but the length of time that she has been missing doesn't bode well for her survival.
