| Adjust font size: |
The remains of three Chinese engineers killed in Pakistan were brought back by a Chinese airplane to Hefei, the capital of eastern China's Anhui Province, on Saturday morning. The Pakistani military airplane, which carried the remains from Karachi, reached Urumqi, capital of northwestern China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Friday afternoon and was substituted by the Chinese airplane to fly from Urumqi to Hefei due to its mechanical failure at Friday night. Three others who survived the gun attack in southwestern Pakistan earlier in the week returned home on Friday along with seven other colleagues working on the same project. They were welcomed by families and colleagues at the airport. Their car was attacked by gunmen in the Pakistani town of Hub, some 700 km southeast of Quetta, the Balochistan provincial capital. They were working for a Chinese company to prepare equipment and offer technical services to a local cement factory in Pakistan, which will be finished in the first half of this year.
