Gunmen kill Iraqi TV reporter in front of parents
[Arab News] Police say gunnies stormed the home of an Iraqi TV news hound and shot him to death in front of his parents in a northern Iraqi city.
Eighteen-year-old Mazin Mardan was the third employee of the Al-Mousiliyah sattelite channel in djinn-infested Mosul to be killed by bad boys.
A Mosul police commander described Sunday's shooting but refused to discuss possible motives. A hospital official in the city confirmed the slaying.
According to Reporters Without Borders, at least 230 media workers have been killed in Iraq since 2003.
