An Iraqi journalist who disappeared after leaving his offices to buy some supplies was found shot to death Tuesday in central Baghdad, according to his organization.
Hisham Michwit Hamdan, 27, went missing Sunday after he left the offices of the Young Journalists League to get notebooks and pens at a market in the central Baghdad district of Bab al-Mudham district, the league's chief said.
His bullet-riddled body was found Tuesday in central Baghdad, according to league chief, Haider al-Moussawi and police.
Hamdan joined the independent organization when it was established in 2003 as a media watchdog and had not reported any threats, al-Moussawi added. He is survived by a wife and two children.
Two journalists employed by US television network CBS also have gone missing in the southern Iraqi city of Basra. CBS did not identify the journalists but said Monday that all efforts were under way to find them.
