A day after Kabul was rocked

July 08, 2008
Meanwhile, bodies of the four Indians killed in the suicide attack were flown into the capital late Monday night in a special Indian Air Force aircraft.

Family members of the victims accompanied the bodies. Defence Attache Brigadier R D Mehta, Counsellor Venkateswara Rao, two ITBP personnel Ajai Pathania and Roop Singh were among the 41 killed.

Rao's body was flung over the roof by the impact of the explosion that blew off the embassy's gates and outer structure and damaged buildings inside the compound.
