The Pakistani newspaper 'Ausaf' which is based in the city of Multan
in the Punjab Province is reporting that Osama bin Laden died last
June in a village near Kandahar in Afghanistan.
According to the newspaper report, Bin Laden was campaigning at
Bamiyan, fell very ill, returned to Kandahar where he died and was
buried in the Shada graveyard in the shadow of a mountain.
The controversy continues to surround Osama bin Laden and while the
United States and Pakistan officials have often been quoted by the
media as saying that his mortal status was just a matter of detail,
the hunt is still on and the issue remains a topic of great interest
for the media and governments alike. The $25 million reward for the
capture of bin Laden remains in effect.
Rumours of bin Laden's death have been circulating for years but have
never been substantiated. The Al-Qaeda leader suffers from kidney
disease which requires dialysis treatment several times each week.
Without dialysis, bin Laden would die within a few days.
