Islamabad: The judicial commission, probing the US raid in Abbottabad that killed Osama bin Laden last year, is likely to hold Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government, the Pakistan Army, the PAF, the ISI and the Intelligence Bureau responsible for the US raid, said a widely circulated daily The News International on Wednesday. Â Â
The newspaper said the commission questioned about the premier why he conveyed his orders to the then Pakistan Ambassador to US Husain Haqqani through his principal secretary, Nargis Sethi to issue visas to 4,000 Americans.
The News said that the commission headed by former Supreme Court judge Justice Javed Iqbal, in its finding said US spies could not have dared to move freely in Pakistan, had PM Gilani acted on the advice of the Pakistan Army and ISI and refrained from issuing visas to thousands of officials of private US security and intelligence agencies.
The commission will submit its report to the federal government by the middle of this month, according to the newspaper.
