ISLAMABAD - PAKISTAN'S foreign ministry says government officials are still holding the wives and children of Osama bin Laden for questioning and that so far, no country has sought their extradition.
Pakistan gained custody of Osama's three wives and eight children on Monday after a covert US operation killed the Al-Qaeda chief at his hideout in the north-western city of Abbottabad.
Among them was Osama's Yemeni-born wife, Amal Ahmed Abdullfattah.
She has told Pakistani investigators that she moved to the home in 2006 and never left the compound.
On Sunday, a Pakistan foreign ministry spokesman, Tahmina Janjua, said that neither Yemen or any other country had asked for the extradition of Osama's relatives. -- AP
