Islamabad: A Pakistan judicial commission has submitted a report Thursday on Osama bin Laden to the country’s Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf.
The report details how the slain al Qaeda leader had been undetected for years until US Navy SEALs killed him on May 2, 2011 in the garrison city of Abbottabad.
However, officials said the report may never be made public.
The commission was appointed 18 months ago to investigate into how bin Laden had been able to hide and whether there was any government or military collusion, AFP reported.
The commission interviewed senior civilian and military officials and the three widows of bin Laden before they were deported to Saudi Arabia in April last year.
Pakistani-US ties drastically deteriorated over the bin Laden raid, which prompted accusations of incompetence or complicity against the military.
Relations slumped to a fresh low after botched US air strikes killed 24 Pakistani soldiers in November 2011, but diplomats say the relationship improved after Pakistan re-opened its Afghan land crossings to Nato goods after a seven-month suspension.
