Iraqi diplomat shot dead in Baghdad
A senior Iraqi diplomat has been shot dead in Baghdad while walking home from the interim foreign ministry.

Qussay Mehdi was reportedly accosted by four armed men who tried to kidnap him. He put up a fight and when the armed men realised they could not take him, they fired twice.

A source said one shot hit Mehdi in the head.

Mehdi, Iraq's charge d'affaires to the United Arab Emirates from June 2003 until last month, had been working at the interim foreign ministry awaiting his next assignment.
