'Breathtaking incompetence' allowed Bin Laden to hide for years - leaked report

Osama bin Laden was able to live in Pakistan undetected for nine years because of a breathtaking scale of negligence and incompetence, a leaked report said.

The 336-page official government report was published by a TV channel yesterday, and written by a commission tasked with investigating the circumstances surrounding the covert US raid that killed bin Laden in Pakistan in May 2011.
