Al-Qaida threat closes UN offices in Pakistan
A threatening phone call that forced the United Nations to close offices in south-western Pakistan said al-Qaida would attack the world body’s offices there.
The phone call was received yesterday by the UN High Commission for Refugees, and the United Nations closed all offices in the south-western province of Baluchistan, said Jan Vandemoortele, the UN Humanitarian Co-ordinator in Pakistan.
