Abducted Iraq newspaper editor found dead
2007-06-18
BAGHDAD - Iraqi newspaper editor Filaih Wadai Mijthab, who was kidnapped by gunmen last week, has been found dead in a Baghdad mortuary, the journalists’ union said on Sunday. ‘His body was found in the mortuary today,’ the union’s secretary Mualid Allami said. ‘The body was riddled with bullets.’

Mijthab, the managing editor of the state-run Al Sabah daily, had been abducted on Wednesday from the Habibiyah neighbourhood, near the east Baghdad Shia militia bastion of Sadr City. He is the latest of scores of print and broadcast journalists to lose their lives in Iraq since the US-led invasion of 2003.
