Taliban chief Mullah Omar
Washington: Pakistan’s intelligence had knowledge about the death of reclusive Taliban chief Mullah Omar and its move to hide the news is “failure” of not only the US-Pak intelligence co-operation, but also the American intelligence as well, a former top Pentagon official has said.
Mullah Omar is reported to have died in a hospital in Karachi on April 23, 2013. But the information about his mysterious death, most probably due to tuberculosis, was leaked only this month and then subsequently confirmed by the Taliban, the White House and the governments of Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Pakistan has as usual strongly denied that it had any information about the death of Omar.
