Pakistani reporter Faiz Muhammad Sasoli was killed in a hail of submachine-gunfire on Sunday. He had escaped two previous murder attempts.
Sasoli, 27, worked for the Aaj Kal, a daily paper in in the southwestern province of Balochistan, and the Independent News of Pakistan agency. His death brings to six the number of media workers killed in Pakistan since the start of the year.
It is thought that a Balochi nationalist group was responsible for the murder, having previously accused Sasoli of being linked to a pro-government militia.
