Retired Pakistan Army office goes missing in Nepal

A retired Pakistan Army officer has gone missing while visiting Nepal for a job interview.

The officer, identified as retired Lt Col Mohammad Habib, has been untraceable since Thursday (April 6) from the Nepalese town of Lumbini soon after his arrival there, reports the Dawn.
