F.M. Shakil, Asia Times: Doctor who helped locate Osama bin Laden may soon be freed
Shakil Afridi, the man who helped track down the al-Qaeda terror chief, has been moved to a jail in central Pakistan amid speculation he is set to be released - to boost ties with the US.
There has been increased speculation over the fate of Shakil Afridi – the doctor who helped track al-Qaeda supremo Osama bin Laden to a housing compound in Abbottabad in northern Pakistan in 2011.
