Pakistan has alleged that the doctor was running a fake vaccination campaign during which he collected DNA samples that helped the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) confirm bin Laden’s identity, media reported.
The doctor was arrested after US forces killed bin Laden in May 2011 in a secret raid in a northern Pakistani town, according to media reports.
