Year on, Osama death pictures will NOT be released: US

April 30, 2012 13:14

Moving on from the Nupur Talwar story to the Osama bin Laden death anniversary reports, the US today said it does not plan to release images related to the covert raid that killed Osama bin Laden in Pakistan fearing that this might incite emotions.

"There's no need to release the photos and video because there's no doubt whatsoever that Bin Laden is dead," Deputy National Security Adviser to US President Barack Obama, John Brennan said.

"What we don't want to do is put out anything that is going to unnecessarily incite emotions on this issue. We believe that it's unnecessary to put something like that out," Brennan said, ruling out any possibility to release these pictures.
