ISLAMABAD - Pakistani Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani Tuesday said neither Taliban chief Mullah Omar nor Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden are in Pakistan, a media report said.
Gilani said if anyone has any credible and verifiable information about Omar and bin Laden it should be shared with Pakistan, Geo TV reported.
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Monday she believed Osama bin Laden was still in Pakistan.
Talking to reporters here, Gilani further said that he had told the Indian prime minister in Bhutan that the present government in Pakistan is in a much better position to negotiate outstanding issues with India as it enjoys support of all political parties, institutions and stakeholders.
He said that Kashmir is a core issue between India and Pakistan.
