For the first time, Pakistan has admitted
knowledge of Osama Bin Laden’s whereabouts
prior to his 2011 death. Prime Minister
Imran Khan made the bombshell revelation
Monday during a candid interview with Fox
News.
Pakistan had, until now, denied all
knowledge of Bin Laden’s presence within its
borders, but Khan confirmed that Pakistan’s
main spy agency, the Inter Services
Intelligence agency (ISI), had provided the
CIA with the lead that ultimately allowed
Seal Team Six to kill the alleged mastermind
of the 9/11 attacks in his Abbottabad
hideout on May 2, 2011, after a
ten-year-long, worldwide manhunt.
“And yet it was ISI that gave the information which led to the location of Osama Bin Laden. If you ask CIA it was ISI which gave the initial location through the phone connection,” Khan said Monday, adding that the incident “hugely embarrassed Pakistan” at the time.
“Here we were an ally of the US and the US did not trust us. And they actually came and bombed and killed a man in our territory,” Khan said.
When challenged by the interviewer, who said that Bin Laden had killed 3,000 Americans so the US was justified in seeking retribution, Khan responded that Pakistan had lost some 70,000 people fighting the US’ “war on terror.”
“We were fighting this war for the US and we lost all these people fighting this war. So, there was obviously a lot of anger about the way this whole thing was done. But you know, that’s all in the past.”
Khan made the revelations during his first official visit to Washington, in which he also hinted at possible nuclear disarmament talks with India.
