Haqqani, Zardari were previously aware of Abbottabad operation: Mansoor Ijaz

Mansoor Ijaz, a Pakistani-American and a key player in memogate controversy, has again levelled serious allegations against President Asif Ali Zardari and former Pakistan ambassador to the United States, saying in his understanding both the personalities were previously aware of US operation in Abbottabad on May 2 that led to killing al-Qaeda Chief Osama bin Laden. He said that it was Zardari’s plan to sent secret memo to Mike Mullen and he has given full authority to Haqqani to handle the memo that was sent to the US joint Chiefs of Staff Committee Admiral Mike Mullen, seeking US operation to stop a military coup in the wake of Abbottabad raid.
