ISLAMABAD (AP) — A Pakistani intelligence official says a Yemeni-born wife of Osama bin Laden has told them she had been living in the al-Qaida chief's final hideout for six years without leaving the upper floors of the house.
The woman is one of three wives of bin Laden currently being interrogated in Pakistan. Authorities are also holding eight or nine children found at the compound after the U.S. raid.
Their accounts will show how bin Laden spent his time and could offer glimpses into the inner workings of al-Qaida.
The official did not say on Friday whether the Yemeni wife has said that bin Laden was also living there since 2006. the official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to give his name to the media.
