?Military, ISI incompetence led to Osama fiasco?

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan's powerful military and its intelligence establishment have been hauled up by a panel that probed the presence of Osama bin Laden in the country saying the former al-Qaida chief was able to stay on its soil since mid-2002 due to "collective failure, culpable negligence and gross incompetence."

According to the Abbottabad Commission's investigations, Pakistan's intelligence establishment had "closed the book" on bin Laden by 2005, and was no longer actively pursuing intelligence that could lead to his capture.

Moreover, it found that there had been a complete collapse of governance and law enforcement ? a situation it termed "Government Implosion Syndrome", both in the lack of intelligence on bin Laden's nine-year stay in Pakistan, and in the response to the US raid that killed him.

The 337-page classified document finds that "culpable negligence and incompetence at almost all levels of government can more or less be conclusively established."

"Abbotabad Commission" report has been authored by former supreme judge Javed Iqabl who was appointed by the government as chief of a five member team to trace down how Osama bin Laden lived and was killed without official knowledge.

As the controversy snowballed, information minister Pervaiz Rashid said on Tuesday that the Pakistani government was not in a hurry to take action against those responsible for negligence in tracing bin Laden.
