US wants access to bin Laden widows
美想审拉登遗孀

Amal Al Sadah, the Al Qaeda leader's fifth wife.

US National Security Adviser Tom Donilon said that the US wants access to Osama bin Laden's three widows and any intelligence material its commandos left behind at the al-Qaida leader's compound, AP reports.

据美联社报道，美国国家安全顾问汤姆·多尼伦表示，美国想审问奥萨马·本·拉登的三位遗孀并想了解美国突击队遗留在“基地”组织领导人住所内的情报材料。

Information from the women might answer questions about whether Pakistan harbored bin Laden. It could also reveal details about the day-to-day life of bin Laden, his actions since the US invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 and the inner workings of al-Qaida.

从这些妇女身上获取的信息可能回答巴基斯坦是否庇护本·拉登的问题，还可能披露本·拉登日常生活的细节、2001年美国入侵阿富汗以来他的行动以及“基地”组织的内部活动。

The women, along with several children also picked up from the house, are believed to be in Pakistani army custody. A Pakistani army official declined to comment Sunday on the request.
