Gunmen kill senior editor from Iraq state TV |
2006-03-12 |
![]() Iraqiya television and police sources said that Amjad Hameed had just left his house in central Baghdad when a car blocked his way and gunmen shot him in the head and seriously wounded his driver. Hameed, married with three children, began working at the channel more than a year ago. Iraqiya, whose editorial line is close to that of the ShiÂ’ite Islamist parties leading the interim government, broke into its programmes and aired verses from the Koran in a sign of mourning. |
