DTN News - OSAMA BIN LADEN NEWS: Pakistan Hits Back Over US Mistrust On Osama Bin Laden’s Raid....NSI News Source Info # 1959(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - May 16, 2011: The Pakistani government recently issued a statement hitting back over the so-called US mistrust over information about the successful raid on Bin Laden’s compound, which resulted in the death of the No. 1 Most Wanted terrorist in the world.
Pakistan Foreign Secretary Salman Bashir immediately dismissed the statement of the CIA chief, but said that the mistrust of the US government becomes a very “disquieting” issue on the part of the Pakistani government. He said his government has played a “pivotal role” in dealing with terrorism; and that the CIA chief was entitled to his own views.
Bashir said that his government has been very extensively cooperative with the US anti-terrorism efforts. Sometime ago, the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), Pakistan’s national intelligence arm, was the one who identified the compound in Abbottabad as “suspicious”, and it was only the extensive use of resources of the CIA that finally determined that it was the hiding place of Bin Laden.
