Pak govt knows where Osama is: Hillary Clinton

Kabul: Speaking from Kabul where she is convening an international donors' conference on Afghanistan, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said she believed that Al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden was still in Pakistan. She also said Washington believed that Taliban chief Mulla Omar was also in the country.

Hillary Clinton also told a news channel that Pakistan government knows where Osama bin Laden is and that Pakistan should share that intelligence.

"I believe (bin Laden) is here in Pakistan and it would be very helpful if we could take them (Al-Qaida leaders)," she said, adding, "I want those guys. I assume somebody in this (Pakistani) government, from top to bottom, does know where Bin Laden is, and I would like to know too,"

Though the Pakistani leaders claim that the world's most wanted terrorist may be dead, top US officials have been maintaining that Laden and his powerful deputy Ayman al-Zawahiri are in Pakistan.

Meanwhile, speaking on the 26/11 Mumbai attacks' interrogation, Hillary Clinton said that Pakistani-American terrorist David Headley has thrown up a revealing set of facts that have been shared with Pakistan.

"I don't know the specifics (of the revelations made by Headley) but I know that it has been quite a revealing set of facts that we have shared with the Pakistani authorities," she said. (With agencies' inputs)
