British construction worker Brendan Vaughan is likely to be among seven hostages killed after they were kidnapped by a Nigerian Islamist group, the Foreign Secretary William Hague has confirmed.
Mr Hague described the Briton's death as an "unforgiveable act of pure cold-blooded murder", adding that there was "no excuse or justification" for the hostages' deaths.
