Ben Laden Sighting Reported In Northeastern Pakistan

The South Asia Tribune reports that Osama bin Laden has been spotted in the Tibet-Laddakh region, close to the North-Eastern tip of Pakistan, bordering India and China:

A high-ranking official of the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) flew from Islamabad on Sunday to meet top Indian officials here in Delhi after reports of Bin Laden’s presence in the region.

According to sources, following the meeting between Indian security bosses and the FBI, the New Delhi Government has put its security forces in the North Western region, specially the Kashmir Valley, on 'red alert.'

These sources in the Indian Home Ministry told this correspondent that intelligence agencies had received information that Bin Laden has been spotted traveling. Some such reports were also published in a section of the Pakistan media.

I'm not going to hold my breath, but damn I hope they are on to something here.

Thanks to Captain's Quarters for the tip.

At Pardon My English, Aaron wonders what happens if the Indians officials get bin Laden.

At Blogs for Bush, Jason Smith posts that the sighting coincides with the delivery of the new terror threat tape ABC just handed over to the CIA. ABC obtained the tape in the same geographical area.

At Conservative Revolution, Mark posts that stories like this will ensure President Bush's re-election.
