Possible upside tomorrow? Taliban offer to hand over Osama: Report LONDON: A senior Taliban minister has offered a last-minute deal to hand over Osama Bin Laden, The Guardian reported on Wednesday citing senior Pakistani official sources. The Taliban militia has proposed for the first time to hand over Bin Laden for trial in a country other than the US without seeking evidence first, in return for a halt to the bombing of Afghanistan, the paper said. But US officials appear to have dismissed the proposal and are instead hoping to engineer a split within the Taliban leadership, the paper said. The offer was brought by Mullah Wakil Ahmed Muttawakil, the Taliban foreign minister and a man who is often regarded as a more moderate figure in the regime. He met officials from the CIA and Pakistan's ISI intelligence directorate in Islamabad on Monday, the report said. US officials pressed the minister for a sweeping change in the regime.
