The three widows of Osama bin Laden are turning on each other in custody, with two older Saudi women blaming a much younger Yemeni wife for leading American intelligence to their hideout. “It’s vicious,” said a Pakistani official briefed on the interrogation of the widows.
“The older wives think the younger one tipped off the Americans or was tracked when she came to join him.”The al-Qa’ida leader was living with three wives when he was killed in Abbottabad three weeks ago. Until US investigators discovered his hiding place, it was not known whether bin Laden and his family were alive. Some reports suggested that they had been killed in the US bombing of Afghanistan.
