ISLAMABAD, July 9 (Xinhuanet) -- Pakistani Foreign
Office Saturday said no one knows about the whereabouts of Osama Bin Laden or
his deputy and they could be everywhere including Afghanistan, according to the
Associated Press of Pakistan.
"They (Al-Qaeda leaders) could be anywhere in the world, including Afghanistan," Foreign Office spokesman
Jalil Abbas Jilani said, while commenting on the statement of Afghan Defense
Minister Abdul Rahim Wardak.
The spokesman said what is more important is the
efforts being made by Pakistan in fighting international terrorism.
Pakistan, despite its limited resources, has made
tremendous sacrifices in the war against terrorism and this has been
acknowledged by the entire international community including the top leadership
in Afghanistan, the spokesman said.
In a statement made Saturday, Wardak said Osama, his
deputy Ayman Al-Zawahiri and Taliban leader Mullah Omar are "continuously moving
and do not stay in one place for a long time, but it is more likely that they
are on the other side of the border," obviously referring to the Pakistani side.
