Afghan journalist shot dead in her bed

A PROMINENT Afghan journalist has been shot dead at her home near Kabul, the second such killing in five days.

Gunmen fired seven bullets into Zakia Zaki, the head of a radio station, as she slept with her eight-month-old son on Tuesday night. She died instantly.

The shooting took place in Parwan, a normally peaceful district north of Kabul not usually associated with Taliban activity.

The Interior Ministry condemned the "act of terror". Police said on Wednesday that they had detained four men in connection with the killing.
