Pakistan orders Save the Children to leave country

Pakistan has ordered the charity Save the Children to leave the country, with an official accusing the NGO of "anti-Pakistan" activities. Police have sealed off their offices in Islamabad and foreign staff given 15 days to leave the country. Save the Children said it "strongly objected" to the action. Pakistan has previously linked the charity to the fake vaccination programme used by the CIA to track down Osama Bin Laden. The charity has always denied being involved with the CIA or Pakistani doctor Shakil Afridi, who carried out the programme. The charity has no foreign staff in the country as they were forced to leave after the accusations emerged in 2012.  It now has 1,200 Pakistani staff working on projects in health, education and food, the charity said. Save the Children, which has operations all over the world, has worked in Pakistan for more than 30 years, according to BBC.
