South Korean Hostage Beheaded in Iraq.
An al-Qaida linked Iraqi militant group has beheaded its South Korean hostage. His body was found on a road between Baghdad and Fallujah.
His killers sent a video of Kim Sun-il's final moments to the pan-Arab satellite channel Al-Jazeera.
Kim was shown kneeling on the ground in front of three masked militants. The part of the tape broadcast did not show Kim dead, but the presenter said he had been beheaded.
Kim, 33, who worked for a South Korean company supplying the US military in Iraq, was abducted last week.
Al-Jazeera said the execution was carried out by the al-Qaida-linked group Monotheism and Jihad.
His kidnappers had initially threatened to kill Kim on Monday night unless South Korea agreed to cancel its deployment of troops to Iraq. The Seoul government rejected the demand and said it would dispatch 3,000 soldiers, beginning in August.
The security firm for which Sun-il worked in Iraq, said earlier today that Kim was still alive and that negotiations for his release were continuing.
South Korean government officials gave numerous interviews to Arab media appealing for Kim's freedom. Foreign Minister Ban Ki-moon was scheduled to appear on Al-Jazeera.
The South Korean Foreign Ministry confirmed that Kim Sun-il was dead.
His body was found by the US military between Baghdad and Fallujah, said spokesman Shin Bong-kil.
