xinhua: Terrorist Trifecta: Italian female journalist kidnapped in Iraq
 Xinhuanet -- An Italian female journalist was kidnapped in Baghdad on Friday, police said. Giuliana Sgrena, a journalist working for I1 Manifesto newspaper, was interviewing people near Baghdad University with her Iraqi colleague, when unknown gunmen kidnapped her from her car. Italian journalist Enzo Baldoni was kidnapped in an area between Baghdad and Najaf on Aug. 20, 2004, and was later killed by his captors of the Islamic Army in Iraq. Another two Italian female humanitarian workers were abducted in Iraq last September, but were released three weeks later. Insurgents have mounted a campaign of hostage-taking and beheading of foreigners to undermine the US-backed interim government.Xinhua cheesecake: Nicole Kidman, Sharapova Posted by: Mrs. Davis 2005-02-04 |
