Salem moved in temporarily after gunmen attacked his apartment in Lugbe, some 20 kilometers southeast, in September. He escaped by a whisker. When VOA visited earlier this month, a quietness had fallen around the house — a reflection of the uncertainty the family has faced since October 13. That was the day when Salem, 43, went missing. For 28 days, his family and colleagues waited for news. Finally, on November 11, they learned the journalist was dead.
