"'Taleban' kill Turkish engineer"

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "A Turkish engineer has been shot dead by suspected Taleban militants while working on a road construction project in western Afghanistan, officials said.
The engineer was pulled from his car and shot when travelling along the border of Farah and Nimroz provinces.

His body was set alight by the militants, an official said.

Militants have repeatedly attacked US-funded road works in Afghanistan and have killed or kidnapped several foreign workers in the past year.

The Turkish engineer was travelling with three police guards on Sunday when gunmen in another car forced their vehicle to stop.

The three guards were released."
