JAMRUD, Pakistan, Aug 24 (AP): Gunmen shot dead an Afghan television journalist and severely wounded his colleague Monday in restive northwestern Pakistan.
Janullah Hashim Zada, who worked for Afghan-based Shamshad TV, was gunned down as he travelled on a public minibus from Torkham in the Khyber tribal region to the northwestern frontier city of Peshawar, said Khyber Agency official Omair Khan.
Zada's colleague, Ali Khan, was seriously hurt with a gunshot wound to the neck.
The driver of the minibus, Abbas Khan, said a white car forced his vehicle to stop after it passed near the town of Jamrud.
