ISLAMABAD (Itar-Tass) - Afghanistan's radical Islamic movement Taliban at its negotiations with Pakistan's delegation has come up with terms of extraditing Osama bin Laden, the Saudi millionnaire implicated in coordinating the recent attack on the U.S., apart from earlier acts of terror.
They demanded that Bin Laden be tried in a neutral country.
The other terms were the lifting of the sanctions against Afghanistan, stopping assistance and arm deliveries to the Northern alliance of troops confronting Taliban and activation of economic assistance to Afghanistan.
Two members of the Pakistani delegation, which was led by intelligence service chief Mahmud Ahmad, left Afghanistan's city of Qandahar on Monday after two-hour talks with Taliban's leader, Mullah Omar.
They returned to Islamabad for consultations with the American side.
News agencies said Pakistan's representatives were to come to Afghanistan's capital Kabul later in the day with an American answer.
Afghanistan's shura, or the council of theologists and elders from all provinces, will decide Bin Laden's fate pending the answer from Islamabad.
