Iraq's Vice Presidents sister murdered

The sister of newly appointed Iraqi Vice-President Tariq al-Hashemi has been killed in a drive-by shooting in the capital Baghdad. Meysoun al-Hashemi and her bodyguard were gunned down while driving through the Hai al-Ilam part of the city shortly after leaving her home.




The attack follows the killing of one of Mr Hashemi's brothers on 13 April.
