Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi died late Monday night of an infection while recovering from an undisclosed illness abroad. He was 57.
The former guerrilla leader's health had been in question after he failed to attend an African Union summit in the Ethiopian capital last month.
After ousting former president Mengistu Haile Mariam's military junta in 1991‚ Zenawi served four years as president.
After his term‚ he was elected as prime minister‚ a position he held for 17 years.
Zenawi was praised by the west for his economic policies and his support in battling terrorist groups in Somalia.
Authorities in this slum in Pakistan have arrested a Christian girl named Rishma for alleged blasphemy.
Details about the girl vary. Some witnesses say Rishma‚ who's between 12 and 16 years of age‚ has Down's syndrome.
The landlord of the Rishma's family home said his nephew saw her throwing out trash that included burnt portions of the Koran.
The landlord said soon after the incident‚ people began to protest and demanded she be arrested.
A spokesperson for the Pakistan Minorities Alliance said Christians‚ who make up 4 percent of Pakistan's population‚ have been especially concerned.
[Interview : Shamun Gill‚ Spokesman
All Pakistan Minorities Alliance] "There is no doubt that minorities‚ especially Christians‚ feel very insecure."
Blasphemy carries the death penalty under Pakistani law.
Although opponents of the law say that becuase convictions hinge on witness testimony‚ they are often linked to personal vendettas.
