| (KUNA) -- The body of a slain journalist photographer was found in the Iraqi capital Baghdad on Thursday. The Iraqi press monitor said that unidentified men had attacked a laboratory in eastern Baghdad and opened intensive fire, with which the photographer was killed and his body was dumped near Al-Sadr city. Up to three journalists were killed during the past 48 hours bringing up the number of Iraqi journalists who were killed since 2003 to 174. The monitor called on Iraqi President Jalal Talabani and Prime Minister Nouri Al-Maleki to draw up a plan to protect journalists and pursue perpetrators. |
