Dr Wasim Khwaja, Executive Director at the Islamabad's main hospital, said 105 bodies have been received and only five of them have so far been identified. He said that DNA tests will take time and the relatives will have to wait for some time as it is a complicated process.

Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Gilani expressed their shock and grief over the crash and extended condolences to families of the victims.

Relatives of the victims in Islamabad and Karachi protested in delay of information and said they are not given correct information.

Large crowds of relatives and friends planned to receive their loved ones taking the flight at the Islamabad airport were shocked upon hearing the news and were eager to know fate of them.

The possibility of terrorism is not ruled out as the terrorist groups in Pakistan have threatened to blow airplanes several times during the last month or so. Interior Minister Rehman Malik said that aspect of sabotage activity will also be kept in mind during the inquiry.

List of the passengers on board of the plane was also released in Karachi and Islamabad.

Some 12 people who had confirmed their seats at the plane missed the flight, and were lucky to survive
