Actually, Captain Ansari DID NOT bury at Stanley Military Cemetery, his actual buial is unknown. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cougarwalk (talkcontribs) 19:58, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Do you have a reference for that, the details on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission certainly make it appear that is actually buried there, but looking at it again, there is a chance from how it's written that he's merely commemorated there, rather than being in a known grave (although there are also a number of unidentified graves in the cemetery).

I'd be the cemetery and saw the two lines of headstone (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Bury_near_site.JPG). The headstone engraved "Buried Near This Spot", could be a not known grave.Cougarwalk (talk) 05:02, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Sounds like they are reasonably sure that his remains are within the cemetery then, they just don't know precisely the spot, so the article is correct as it stands. David Underdown (talk) 09:11, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
