Mourners crowd around a coffin containing the body of Iranian photojournalist Kaveh Golestan at a cemetary in Afcheh village about 20 miles (32 km) northeast of Tehran on April 6, 2003. Golestan, 52, was killed when he stepped on a landmine in northern Iraq on April 2, 2003 while working as a cameraman for the BBC. A picture of Golestan is held aloft in the distance. Golestan was a prize-winning photographer and cameraman who covered the 1979 Islamic revolution in Iran and Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's gassing of Kurds in northern Iraq in 1988. In recent years he had worked mostly as a freelance cameraman for the BBC in Tehran. REUTERS/Morteza Nikoubazl REUTERS PJH
