The spiritual leader of the Ismaili Muslims, Prince Karim Aga Khan, has
arrived in Tajikistan at the start of a six-day tour of Central Asia.

He's to have talks with President Rahmomov on, among other things, the
opening of an international university in the town of Khorog, the
administrative centre of the Gorno-Badakshan region. The Aga Khan's tour
will also take him to Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan.
