US Osama Raiders Spoke Pashtu: Abbottabad Residents
[Tolo News] Some residents of Abbottabad have said a number of US special forces spoke in Pashtu language during raid on the late Osama bin Laden's... who is currently taking a long nap in the dirt... urm... water... compound.
"Copters were flying very low and we became worried as it was unusual to see military helicopters flying at nights. At 01:00 am (local time) a huge kaboom rocked our city and then we curiously went out of our houses to see what had happened," said a resident in Abbottabad who declined to give his name for security reasons. "When we got ourselves to the incident site, it was already surrounded by the troops." A TOLOnews news hound who visited Abbottabad said he made it to the town after going through strict security checks by Pak security. A Pak check post police told TOLOnews "we search all the vehicles that enter the city. We don't let any person or vehicle in without passing through security check." Once you get into the city you would immediately find out that Abbotabad, the city where the runaway al-Qaeda leader holed himself up for several years, is a semi-military town. The structure of Osama compound is more like a military base and one architect living not so far form the compound said "the way the three-story house was designed had made me curious." Osama bin Laden was reportedly in the third floor of the building at the time of the attack and a US soldier has told the media that Laden had peeked at him from a window and then hastily ran for his life. People living near Osama compound said those living in the compound had never told anyone about what their occupation was. Posted by: Fred 2011-05-10 |
