PARIS -- French authorities have opened an investigation into an anonymous threat against Chinese national carrier Air China, a spokesman for the Paris prosecutor’s office said on Tuesday. Air China’s Paris office received a letter, written in English, threatening reprisals if Muslim prisoners in China were not released.

Suspected Muslim separatists killed 16 police officers in a homemade bomb attack in the northwestern region of --injiang last week, days before the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.
