Osama bin Laden’s Yemeni brother-in-law, Zakaria al-Sadah, spoke to NBC News' Amna Nawaz in Islamabad in his first interview with an American television network.
He said he is concerned for his sister, who was shot in the raid that killed the al-Qaida leader, and frustrated she and her five children have been in Pakistani custody for almost a year.
"I asked (my sister), 'maybe they're holding you for information you have?' and she said she's already told them everything she knows, there is nothing else to tell them.'"

Hey, I got an idea - why dont we let her come to America or the UK and give her a new start. Obviously she must be illiterate with no job skills, so taxpayer funded of course.
wow. that was the shortest article ever written. yet another media ploy to make us concerned for her?
LOL! who the @!$%# cares? I mean really?? i mean im dead to rights serious... who the @!$%# cares?!
Agreed.
Wow.. the link that lead to nowhere. The whole article could have just been the title. I want my 30 seconds back.
I wonder who's going to be her next husband, Hassan Izz-Al-Din maybe?
Shortest article on record! And I agree with most of the posters here, who cares? If she was in Pakistan with Bin Laden then she deserves what she gets.
This just poor.No journalist wrote this.And who cares?Let's focus on Americans.And shut the damn door!
Didn't we learn that Osama's wives made his life miserable? They may be entitled to a medal.
Americans have a problem with short and long term memory. Terrorism is not going away, by itself. It has to be eradicated. Get it through your dumb ass heads; there are people in this world, that want you and everything you represent wiped from the face of the planet.
They are taught this ( male and female) from birth, early childhood, teenage, young adult, mature adult, and through old age; all the way to their graves, and to the generations after them, that the world will be a much better place; once you, and all like you are gone forever.
GET IT! They're banking on the free world losing it's stomach for the long haul, and fighting, the good fight. Terrorist exist like insects and rodents. They live in nests, called cells. They move among us like parasites; always looking, for a host, and a chance to strike when we least expect it. There is no central seat of government to take down. This is a snake, with many heads.
I have a suggestion for the most militant wife of OBL: emigrate to either the US or Canada, milk/fraud either government and/or stupid politicians for big bucks for your wounds, get special privileges while living in the West, covertly gather and send millions to extremists who wish to blow up Western facilities, attack the West, kill Western citizens and make sure your 5 kids all attend extremist islamic schools so they can be indoctrinated with hate against the West and, lastly, vie with other skanks and airheads for a reality show.
okay charlie o & canadian-41 and others this country should be very careful with immigrents from
the middle east and i'm sure security has been reinforced but to what degree? 9/11 was like nothing anyone in the intelligence community could even grasp. its not very hard to intuit who are enemy is. why provide aid to nations harboring terrorists? we need to take care of our own and not sub-human mad men.
