Pakistan denies Bin Laden’s death reports

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has received no information from any foreign government that would corroborate a French newspaper report on Saturday that al Qaeda leader
Osama bin Laden died of typhoid in Pakistan, government official said.

"No government has shared any such information with us so far, which is the normal thing to do under such circumstances," the official told foreign news agency.

A French daily reported that, according to a French secret service report, Saudi Arabia was convinced that bin Laden died of typhoid in Pakistan in late August.

France's Defence Ministry said a secret service report saying al Qaeda leader Osama
bin Laden had died could not be confirmed but said it would launch an inquiry into the leak of secret documents.
