Al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden was slain along with his son and three bodyguards in the northern city of Abbottabad on late Sunday night at 3rd of May to bring to an end the biggest-ever victory by United States over Terrorism. Bin Laden was thrown in sea to evade a "shrine" circumstances. Bin Laden was shot dead with a single bullet to his head when he refused to give in to his capture. Details are wooly about the circumstances leading to the raid on the living quarters inside the large compound surrounded by unusually high walls and fences, but background discussions with government and security officials do help in reconstructing the high drama that concluded with the death of US most wanted man.
Some officials released the report regarding the killing of Bin Laden having statements that helicopters were hovering over the area at around half past midnight and it took the US assault team of 25 Navy Seals and CIA personals about 40 minutes to clear the area and took away the dead body of that person for US had been chasing for nearly a decade. One of the two helicopters involved in the mugging went down during battle and one official who visited the scene said there was no evidence to suggest that it might have been hit by a rocket or shot from the ground. But he said the one loud explosion heard during the gun-battle might have been caused by the departing assault team which bombed the hatchet into pieces after salvage their men and accomplishing their mission. Osama's son was also killed in that assault as the official proclaimed. The president of Pakistan, Asif Ali Zardari also claimed for carrying out the information regarding the Bin Laden's tenant in Abbottabad.
Total nine numbers of children were also detained from the compound, they were boys and girls aged between 2 and 12 years. Among them, one was the Bin Laden's 11 year old daughter. Those children are now in the detention of Pakistan's security agencies. They would also be interrogated for touching the bottom of the whole anecdote. US official said, "We want to know the whole scenario. How and when did the entire team come to this part of the region? There are a lot of burning questions in the minds of whole world".
A senior US defense official said that US forces administered Muslim religious burial for Bin Laden aboard an aircraft carrier earlier in the day in the Arabian Sea. He said, "Today religious rights were conducted for the deceased on the deck of the USS Carl-Vinson which is located in the North Arabian Sea". Traditional procedures for Islamic burial were followed. The deceased's body was washed and then placed in a white sheet. The body was placed in a weighted bag.
