28 Jan 2008 12:34:05 GMT

ISLAMABAD, Jan 28 (Reuters) - Pakistani authorities
found the body of a U.S. diplomat in Islamabad on
Monday and were investigating what they suspected
was a case of suicide, Interior Minister Hamid
Nawaz said.

The U.S. embassy named the dead man as Keith Ryan,
and said he had "passed away" on Monday morning.
It said his family had been informed.

"There will be a full investigation; however, there does
not appear to have been any foul play," the embassy
said in a brief statement.

Pakistani television news channels reported the man had
suffered a gunshot wound, and was found at his home on
a leafy avenue close to the diplomatic enclave in the
Pakistani capital.
