ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, March 21 (UPI) -- Pakistan's high court said it
will hear a petition for the dismissal of charges against the Yemeni widow of
Osama bin Laden.
Amal Ahmad Abdul Fattah and her five young children have been in custody
since last year when the al-Qaida leader was killed at his Abbottabad complex
during a raid by U.S. Navy SEALs, the government-supported Associated Press of
Pakistan reported Wednesday.
Her brother, Zakarya Ahmad Abd Alftah, filed a petition in the Islamabad
High Court to quash cases against his sister and allow her and her children to
return to Yemen.
After hearing the case in brief, the court said it would examine the
petition Thursday and decide whether to go forward.
