LONDON - As per the Mirror report, Kate Middleton link and Prince William will be protected by a huge 'ring of steel' consisting of 1,000 police officers when they visit Pakistan next week.
The royals will be afforded an unprecedented level of security during their five-day trip which seeks to forge closer links between the UK and the Commonwealth's second largest country.
Details of the trip are tightly guarded and will only be revealed to local media at the last minute, emphasising concerns about a possible security threat from Islamic militants.
The Palace described it as one of the most difficult royal tours undertaken by the Cambridges in a statement released ahead of the trip.
William, 37 and Kate arrive on Monday and will travel to the mountainous north, the capital Islamabad and the city of Lahore, with a focus on climate change, access to education and security.
During the visit, they will also meet the Oxford-educated Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan.
The former cricketer had a close friendship with Princess Diana and has known William for most of his life.
