                    Afghanistan Orders NYT Reporter to Leave

   by Reuters

   Afghanistan has given New York Times reporter Matthew Rosenberg 24
   hours to leave the country for not cooperating with an investigation, a
   statement from the attorney general's office said on Wednesday.

   Rosenberg had been summoned to the attorney general's office for
   questioning on Tuesday after the newspaper ran a story about officials
   discussing plans to form an interim government if a deadlock over the
   presidential election failed to be broken soon.

   The correspondent, who has spent three years at the NYT bureau in
   Kabul, said the attorney general had not yet contacted him directly
   about the order to leave.
