ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Mian Nawaz Sharif has termed the Abbottabad operation, conducted by US SEALs and killed Osama bin Laden, as failure of intelligence, and demanded of the government to constitute a judicial commission to investigate into the saga, Geo News reported.

Addressing a press conference following party meeting here, Nawaz Sharif said judicial commission be given a 21-day timeframe to complete investigation and the facts be made public after the probe.

Former premier expressed concern over the Abbottabad operation, saying that it was a serious issue. He said no one would be allowed to use Pakistani soil for terrorism and extremism. He added that there is no place for terrorism in the country.

The world is raising fingers on Pakistan after the incident, PML-N leader said and added that armed forces have not given satisfactory answer. The Osama raid has affected the morale of armed forces.

Raymond Davis issue also showed that our matters are in the hands of spy agencies.

Today’s situation presents the scenario of 1971 and t seems that our defence system has become so weak, Nawaz stated.
