Heads will roll after Osama probe: Haqqani

Pakistan’s Ambassador to US Husain Haqqani on Sunday promised that ‘heads will roll’ following an investigation into how Osama bin Laden was able to hide out for years in Abbottabad.
In an interview with ‘This Week’ programme at the ABC channel, he said that the US and Pakistan needed each other and would continue to cooperate. Haqqani said if anybody in the government, military or intelligence knew of bin Laden’s whereabouts, Pakistan would have taken action. “Osama bin Laden’s presence in Pakistan was not to Pakistan’s advantage,” he said. However, he left open the possibility that the ongoing investigation could uncover complicity inside the government.
“Heads will roll once the investigation has been completed. Now, if those heads are rolled on account of incompetence, we will share that information with you. And if, God forbid, somebody’s complicity is discovered, there will be zero tolerance for that, as well,” Haqqani said, adding that bin Laden’s wives and children who were living on the compound were being interrogated. “Pakistan wants to put to rest any, any misgivings the world has about our role.”
