China rejects report of bin Laden raid copter access
CHINA yesterday dismissed a report that Pakistan gave it access to an advanced US "stealth" helicopter that crashed during the raid that killed Osama bin Laden in May.
During the raid, one of two Blackhawk helicopters -- believed to use advanced stealth technology -- crashed, forcing US commandos to abandon it. The Financial Times reported on Sunday that Pakistani authorities gave China access to the wreckage, despite CIA requests to Islamabad to keep the wreckage under wraps.
China's Ministry of Defense denied this in a one-sentence statement, the first public response to the report.
"This report is totally unfounded and extremely absurd," said the statement on the ministry's website.
Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence Directorate, the country's top spy agency, also earlier denied the report.
