Haji Wali Mohammed, 65, is the gate keeper to treasure trove of holy books stored in tunnels beneath Chiltan Mountain, on the heights of Quetta, the capital of Pakistan's Baluchistan province. Several small green doors give access to the maze of tunnels dug into the mountain. One of Wali's helpers locks the sacred doors with a padlock. |  |
