Taleban leader Mullah Omar and al-Qaeda commanders, including Osama Bin Laden, are living in Pakistan, a senior US official has told reporters.
He said senior Taleban leaders were in hiding with Mullah Omar in Quetta, from where they co-ordinated the insurgency in Afghanistan.
He also reiterated Washington's belief that Bin Laden was taking refuge in Pakistan's western tribal areas.
Islamabad repeatedly denies that Mullah Omar or Bin Laden are in Pakistan.
But check this out:
Last month, captured Taleban spokesman Muhammad Hanif made similar claims about Mullah Omar's whereabouts, which were rejected by Pakistan.
Mr Hanif said Mullah Omar was protected by Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence agency.
If Pakistan says the ISI isn't protecting Mullah Omar, then that's good enough for me. :^)
