By Khalid Hasan
WASHINGTON: The United Nations secretariat has denied a report carried by a Pakistani newspaper that UN Secretary General Kofi Annan will launch President Pervez Musharraf’s book, In the Line of Fire, in New York on September 25.
Jaya Dayal from the office of Shashi Tharoor, under secretary general for public information, told Daily Times that she had checked with the Annan’s office, and “no such invitation had been received; there is nothing like this on September 25”.
