Talk:Sheikh Nur Mohamed Abkey

Date of death - May 4th? May 5th?
The Committee to Protect Journalists (Reliable source & the NUSOJ both state May 4th as Abkey's date of death. Reporters without Borders also reports date of  death as being 'yesterday' with their publishing date being May 5th.  The only source that reports the 5th as being the day Abkey was murdered is the May 6th IPI report with part of their statement saying:
 * MOGADISHU, Somalia, May 6, 2010/African Press Organization (APO)/ — Sheikh Nur Mohamed Abkey, a journalist working with the Somali government-run radio station, Radio Mogadishu, was murdered by gunmen last night in Mogadishu, according to reports from local Somali press freedom advocates.

It is possible the timeline is somewhat confused because of the nature of the crime - kidnapping after dark, murder occurring sometime later, body dumped later that day - but I am deleting the IPI ref about the May5th date as conflicting with other published/reliable sources, but am including it in the Reaction section.
