Israel urged to bare findings in journalist's death

(Reuters) - The Committee to Protect Journalists on Wednesday called on Israel to release findings of an army investigation into the killing of a Reuters cameraman in the Gaza Strip in April.
Fadel Shana, a 24 -year- old Palestinian, was hit by a spray of metal darts from a controversial type of missile on April 16 as he filmed an Israeli tank dug in about a kilometer (1 ,000 yards) away.
The CPJ expressed concerns about the case in a meeting with Israel's ambassador to the United States, Sallai Meridor, the New York-based organization said in a statement.
CPJ Senior Program Coordinator Joel Campagna told the ambassador: "We hope that Israeli authorities will provide answers that help explain this shocking incident," the statement said.
Meridor spoke with CPJ on condition that his comments not be publicized, the New York-based organization said.
An Israeli Embassy spokesman did not immediately return a telephone call seeking comment.
In an interview with Reuters, Campagna said the journalists' group was disappointed that two months after the incident there had not been conclusive information on the killing from the Israeli authorities.
