Zairian refugees fleeing to Rwanda

KIGALI, Rwanda (AP) - Hundreds of Zairian citizens of Rwandan descent are fleeing to Rwanda from heavy fighting in Zaire, U.N. officials said yesterday.

In a new twist to the central African refugee crisis, at least 1,051 Zairian refugees, most of them members of the Tutsi ethnic group, are in a U.N. transit center in northwestern Rwanda seeking asylum, said Richard Danziger, coordinator for the International Organization of Migration.

About 350 refugees a day have crossed the border at Gisenyi since fighting flared Thursday in Zaire's Masisi region, he said.

Jesus' name found on Jerusalem tomb

JERUSALEM (AP) - Researchers have found caskets from a 1st-century tomb near Jerusalem that bear the names Joseph, Mary and Jesus, son of Joseph. But archeologists say the find is probably a coincidence.

The caskets, which contained no bones, were excavated in 1980 and rediscovered two weeks ago by researchers for a television program.

But Israel's Antiquities Authority said the find was a coincidence, saying the names Joseph, Mary and Yehoshua - or Jesus - were common in the 1st century.

Parliament gives police more power

LONDON (AP) - The government asked Parliament yesterday for new anti-terrorism powers to let police frisk pedestrians and search non-residential premises and unaccompanied cargoes at ports.

The Labor Party agreed with the government's plan to enact the new laws before the Easter recess.

Police now have the power to stop cars and search the occupants, and to inspect luggage carried by pedestrians in designated areas, such as the financial district in London.
