'Sipah-e-Islam' claims killing journalists
 A group calling itself Sipah-e-Islam (Soldiers of Islam) has claimed responsibility for the killing of two tribal journalists in South Waziristan on February 7. "We accept responsibility for the killing of two journalists in South Waziristan last week," said a message faxed to a newspaper's office in Peshawar on Thursday and obtained by Daily Times on Friday. "Some journalists are working for Christians while disguising themselves as mediamen. They are used as tools in the negative propaganda of Christians against the Muslim mujahideen," read the faxed statement signed by the group's spokesman, Ahmed Farooqi.
