OUTLINE

Journalist murdered in Balochistan, Pakistan

Mujahid had written “Quetta Ki Diary” in the paper for the past few years
and was also an eye doctor. The editor of the publication he worked for
had given it an opinionated headline that humiliated the leader of one of
the groups involved in the insurgency.

The group immediately claimed responsibility, saying it was in revenge for
an article about the killing one of its leaders. The article did not
criticise him but the headline on it was strongly worded.
