Bin Laden's three wives, two children jailed for 45 days

Islamabad, Apr 2(ANI): A senior civil judge in Pakistan has sentenced former Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden's three widows and two of his daughters to a month and a half in prison for residing in the country illegally, and ordered the government to arrange for their repatriation.

The judge announced one and a half month imprisonment to all the five accused besides imposing a fine of 10,000 rupees, The News reports.

They were earlier charged with entering Pakistan illegally.

Bin Laden's wives and about 10 children were taken into custody last May when US commandos raided their safe house.

The trio had been living in the compound in Abbottabad that US Navy SEALS attacked, killing Bin Laden. (ANI)
