He was responding to CIA chief Leon Panetta’s comment that Pakistan had been either “involved or incompetent”.

Bashir dismissed the accusation that Pakistan was involved but said the aspect of incompetence “was being looked into”.

If it was an intelligence failure, he said, then Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani had already said that it was global intelligence failure.

Osama bin Laden was killed by US commandos May 2 in Abbottabad city.
