Pakistan panel wants bin Laden family held for now

None

A Pakistani commission investigating the US raid that killed Osama bin Laden has ordered the government to prevent the al-Qaeda chief's relatives from leaving the country without its permission.

 

Pakistani authorities recently indicated they were ready to send one of bin Laden's wives to her native country of Yemen. It is unclear whether Pakistan's powerful security agencies will pay heed to the commission's demand, issued late Tuesday. (AP)
