Osama`s house for sale - privacy Full guaranteed In Islamabad: Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden's killing in a dramatic US raid has raised questions about his presence in Pakistan but it has also shown the country's humour mill at its creative best.

The world's most wanted man met his end in a compound located about 800 yards from the Pakistan Military Academy near the historic garrison city of Abbottabad.

"Mansion in Abbottabad available phor rent. Safe place, stones throw away phrom Pakistan Military Academy.Privacy guaranteed," read another tweet by majorlyprofound, an anonymous Pakistani user of Twitter known for his acerbic wit and irreverent takes on serious issues.

"Innocent old man, brown skin I might add, brutally murdered by imperial storm troopers who descended from the sky," read one tweet.

Wrong to say Pakistan harboured Osama: Ex-ISI chief Hindi News



Wrong to say Pakistan harboured Osama : पाकिस्तान की खुफिया एजेंसी इंटर सर्विसेज इंटेलिजेंस (आईएसआई) ने सोमवार को हामिद गुल के पूर्व प्रमुख ने कहा कि यह गलत था कहना है कि पाकिस्तानी सत्ता प्रतिष्ठान ओसामा बिन लादेन, जो एक साहसी हमले में अमेरिकी सेनाओं द्वारा पाकिस्तान के Abbottabad शहर में मारा गया था "harbored" .

"यह गलत है कहना है कि आईएसआई या पाकिस्तान सरकार ओसामा करते हैं. अधिक जानकारी पाकिस्तानी खुफिया उसे शरण देने गया था, तो वे अमेरिकी खुफिया के साथ क्यों समन्वय होगा अंदर आओ शरण था?" लेफ्टिनेंट जनरल गुल (सेवानिवृत्त) समाचार चैनल सीएनएन आईबीएन को बताया.


जब संदिग्ध उच्च दीवार हवेली की तरह है जिसमें लादेन Abbottabad में छिपा हुआ था के बारे में पूछा, गुल स्पष्ट किया है कि बड़ी दीवार यौगिकों क्वेटा और Abbottabad के क्षेत्रों में आम थे.

"यह असामान्य करने के लिए पाकिस्तान के इस हिस्से में भारी दीवारों और भारी सुरक्षा के साथ यौगिकों है पठानों आमतौर पर विशाल परिसर दीवारों का निर्माण नहीं है." उन्होंने कहा.


गुल पता चला कि वह लादेन के 1993 में सूडान में एक सम्मेलन में मिले थे, लेकिन पाकिस्तान में वह अल कायदा के प्रमुख कभी नहीं मिला.

उन्होंने यह भी दावा किया कि यह संभव हो गया था कि आईएसआई पाकिस्तान में उनकी उपस्थिति के बारे में पता नहीं था.

"आईएसआई एक संगठन है जो सब कुछ जानता है. नहीं है और मैं कभी कभी लगता है कि ऐसे लोगों को दूर किसी का ध्यान नहीं मिलता है और यह संभव है कि आईएसआई को इस बारे में पता नहीं मिला जा सकता है" उन्होंने कहा.

How Osama was found US forces finally found al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden not in the rugged mountains of Afghanistan's border, but in a million-dollar compound in an upscale suburb of Pakistan's capital, with his youngest wife, US officials said early on Monday.

They were led to the fortress-like three-storey building after more than four years tracking one of bin Laden's most trusted couriers, whom US officials said was identified by men captured after the September 11, 2001 attacks.

"Detainees also identified this man as one of the few al Qaeda couriers trusted by bin Laden. They indicated he might be living with or protected by bin Laden," a senior administration official said in a briefing for reporters.
