Washington: DNA test confirmed that American special forces had in fact killed Al-Qaeda mastermind Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan, said Obama administration.
US administration used DNA testing and other means to confirm that US special forces in Pakistan had in fact killed Osama bin Laden.
US officials said the DNA testing alone offered a “99.9 percent” certainty that bin Laden was shot dead in a US military operation in Pakistan. Detailed photo analysis by the CIA, confirmation by other people at the raid site and matching physical features like bin Laden’s height all helped confirmed the identification.
The officials said, “There should be no doubt in anybody’s mind, this is Osama bin Laden.”
Still, it was unclear if the world would ever get visual proof. Bin Laden’s body was quickly buried at seat, and administration officials were weighing the merit and appropriateness of releasing a photo of bin Laden, who was shot in the head.
