Pakistan officially rejects US demand to release Osama doc Shakil Afridi

     Pakistan has rejected the United States' demand to release Pakistani doctor, Shakil Afridi, who has been accused of assisting the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in tracking down Osama Bin Laden. According to sources, U.S. Special Envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan, Mark Grossman, made the demand during his meetings with the president, prime minister, foreign minister and army chief, but the Pakistani leadership replied in negative and argued that Afridi's conduct was against the interests of Pakistan, reports The Nation. Grossman was of the view that the relations between Pakistan and the U.S. should be clear, durable and strategic in nature. He added that mutual ties must be based upon the common interests of the two countries so that the war against terror could be won, sources said.
