A US House of Representatives panel unveiled a bill that would block aid to Pakistan unless the Obama administration reassures the Congress that Islamabad is cooperating in the battle against terrorism, says The Telegraph. The House Foreign Affairs Committee will consider the bill authorising the money today (Wednesday). The legislation would bar aid to Pakistan unless the secretary of state can certify to Congress that Pakistan is fully assisting the United States with investigating the existence of an official or unofficial support network in Pakistan for Osama bin Laden. It also calls for direct access to the wives of the al Qaeda chief. The draft bill also insists on proof that weapons provided by the US are not used for anything other than fighting terrorists along the Pak-Afghan border and wants an end to visa delays for counter-terrorism personnel.
