 Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) legislator Maulana Abdul Akbar Chitrali on Friday rejected US intelligence agencies' reports regarding Osama Bin Laden's presence in Chitral as "unauthentic and unjustified". | "Long tall turban? Talks to himself a lot? Never seen him. Certainly not 'round these parts. Nope. Nope." |
Speaking in the National Assembly on a point of order, Chitrali said that the mountainous Chitral area shared a border with five countries, but was completely peaceful. He said that the CIA and FBI had set up offices in Chitral, but had left the area after locals protested their presence. "Neither have we sheltered anybody nor will we tolerate foreign interference in the area," he said. |
