Pakistan to take action if Osama located in country: Sherry
Staff Report
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan will take action on its own if Islamabad has any knowledge of Osama Bin Laden’s location within the country’s territory, Information Minister Sherry Rehman said on Wednesday. “If our allies share intelligence with us over high-value targets we will pursue them on the ground. However, we will not allow anyone to challenge our sovereignty and no country should violate Pakistan’s territorial integrity,” Sherry said in response to comments by US presidential candidates John McCain and Barack Obama. “Parliament has been given an in-camera briefing on national security today and we hope all responsible citizens will match our efforts to root out...extremism,” she said.
