Pak-US public need to see Abbottabad commission report

The US has said it is important for the Pakistani and American public to see the report of Abbottabad Commission.
Addressing a news briefing here, the US State Department spokesperson Mark Toner said his country has not yet seen the Abbottabad commission report, adding Pakistan has not yet given the report to the US and they had only seen reports in the Pakistani press about the Abbottabad commission report.
“We share a profound interest in what kinds of support networks Bin Laden may have had.” The spokesperson added that when such a report does get finalised and is made public, it would be important for the American and Pakistani people to know about the results.
He added that he could not comment on the report’s findings since they had not seen the report.
Replying to a question regarding Malala Yousufzai, Toner said the terrorists in Pakistan want to prevent girls like Malala from receiving education, adding the people of Pakistan should comprehend the terrorists’ message.
It should be mentioned here the five-member commission was formed last year after a hue and cry over the US action on Pakistan territory where they tracked down Osama bin Laden and later killed him.
The commission interviewed several high ranking military officials in addition to the widows and children of bin Laden. The al Qaeda chief was believed to be residing in the compound for as many as five years.
