A BRITISH man has been murdered in Pakistan as he prepared to give evidence against a gang accused of kidnapping him.
Malik Iqbal, from Bradford, was killed when three masked men attacked him at a house in Rawalpindi where he was staying.
The 55-year-old was held hostage for a month in September last year and was only released when a £15,000 ransom was paid.
