'Mush Lunged at Former Afghan Intel Chief Over Osama'


Washington, May 16 (PTI) Former Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf "lunged" at the then Afghan intelligence chief in 2007 after being confronted with inputs on al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden's presence in Mansehra city, not far from Abbottabad, where he was eventually killed by US forces.

Afghan President Hamid Karzai had to intervene to save his former intelligence chief Amrullah Saleh in the meeting that took place four years back, American news network CBS News reported.

Saleh said he had confronted Musharraf back in 2007 on the issue of bin Laden.

"He told him that Afghan intelligence believed bin Laden was in the Pakistani city of Mansehra. Saleh told us Musharraf was so offended that he lunged at him, and that Afghan President Hamid Karzai had to intervene," CBS News said in a report.
