MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) - The manager of a radio station critical of both the Somali government and the Islamic militants who have been trying to topple it was killed outside his home in the Somali capital, the eighth journalist slain in the country this year.
Radio Shabelle's Bashir Nor Gedi, who was also a well-known businessman, was returning home from work late Friday when gunmen shot him three times in the head and chest, his younger brother, Abdinasir Nor Gedi, said Saturday.
"We heard three gunshots and someone crying out for help. When we came out we saw it was my brother in a pool of blood," the brother told The Associated Press.
