Kasuri says he cannot confirm reports of Osama's capture
Press Trust of India
Islamabad, February 28

Pakistan Foreign Minister Khurshid Mehmood Kasuri on Saturday declined to confirm reports of Osama bin Laden's arrest.

"I cannot confirm it. They (the troops) made an effort (to capture him) but (I) cannot confirm it," Kasuri said at a joint press conference with visiting French Foreign Minister Dominique Devilpan here, when asked about the reports of bin Laden's capture."




Looks like a big attempt was made. Capture not confirmed, not denied. Looks like we'll be in the air for a while yet.

I think we got him ( as per Sean's original description)and are desperately trying to cover up that fact---possibly out of concern for AQ's response to the news? On the other hand, AQ acknowleged that he wasn't coming back to them, in a statement made January 29.
