Imran Khan called Osama Bin Laden a martyr, his foreign minister says 'I will let it pass'

Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi in his interview to an Afghanistan-based TV news channel ducked the question on Imran Khan’s view about Osama bin Laden.

In 2020, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan had called former Al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden, the mastermind of 9/11 terror attacks in the US in 2001, a ‘martyr’ while addressing the country’s parliament, the National Assembly. His foreign minister, Shah Mahmood Qureshi in his interview to an Afghanistan-based TV news channel ducked the question on Imran Khan’s view about Osama bin Laden, who was killed in a secret mission by the US forces in 2011 in Pakistan. After fluttering a little while responding to the question, Shah Mahmood Qureshi decided to “pass” it.
