Pakistanis residents search for victims around the wreckage of the crashed PIA passenger plane (flight PK661) at the site in the village of Saddha Batolni in the Abbottabad district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. The aircraft crashed after one of its two turboprop engines failed en route to Islamabad, killing everyone on board, authorities said yesterday, even as they began a probe into the accident and sent bodies for DNA testing to identify the victims.
