A mix-up led to the remains of a UK serviceman killed in Afghanistan being returned in the wrong coffin, the Ministry of Defence has admitted.
It occurred after a Nimrod aircraft crashed near Kandahar in September - killing 12 airmen based at Kinloss in Moray, a soldier and a Marine.
There was a "regrettable incident" but the problem was sorted out before the men's funerals, the MoD insisted.
