    The Liberia Refugee Agency (LRRRC) has called on the government to take measures to stop the looting of property belonging to humanitarian agencies in Liberia, independent 'Star Radio' reported on Thursday.

    "The agency's director, Alexander Kulue, says he is concerned about the looting of properties of donor agencies by security officers. Mr. Kulue said he witnessed the confiscation of UN properties by security officers in Zorzor recently," the radio said.

    Kalue said he regretted that aid agencies had been "victimised" and said its programmes had been set back by the brief detention last week of UN officials in the town of Voinjama near the country's northern border with Guinea.
