U.K. cautions tourists to Pak.

By B. Muralidhar Reddy

ISLAMABAD, SEPT. 20. The British Foreign Office has advised its citizens intending to visit Pakistan to check the security situation before travelling and remain vigilant during their stay, particularly in large cities.

It has advised British nationals and their families residing in Pakistan to follow the security situation, adopt a low profile and keep in touch with Consular wardens and the British High Commission.

Significantly, the travel advice was issued a day before the powerful blast which rocked the fruit and vegetable market in Islamabad. A few weeks ago, the United States had issued a similar advice to American citizens intending to visit Pakistan.
