Shamraiz Khan’s family in the Pakistani town of Abbottabad wants him back.

居住在巴基斯坦阿伯塔巴德城的Shamraiz Khan家人，希望他快回來。

His son says he was taken away by Pakistani soldiers after the U.S. raid on the home of a neighbor they’ve now been told was Osama bin Laden.

他的兒子說，他在美國搜捕鄰居的家園後，被巴基斯坦士兵帶走了，他們現在已被告知那是奧沙瑪‧賓拉登的住處。

[Mohammad Qasim, Son of Shamraiz Khan]:

“When the operation was over and our military came here they called him and took him away. After that there’s been no news of him, he still hasn’t returned.”

Shamraiz Khan的兒子穆罕默德凱西姆說：“攻堅搜捕行動結束後，我們的軍隊來到這裡，他們叫住他，並把他帶走。之後，就沒有他的消息，他仍然還沒有回來。”

Khan’s family say he went out to see what was happening as U.S. troops stormed bin Laden’s large house across the street.

Khan的家人說，當美軍猛攻在對街賓拉登的大房子，他出去看看發生了什麼事。

[Shab Noor, Mother of Shamraiz Khan]:

“For God’s sake, return my son to me. I am very upset. I am ill and unable to get up. For God’s sake, tell the prime minister to get my son back. I beg of you.”

Shamraiz Khan的母親Shab Noor說：“看在上帝的份上，把兒子還給我。我很生氣，我病了，不能起床。看在上帝的份上，告訴總理讓我的兒子回來。我求求你.”

On Wednesday, life had the air of normality in the neighborhood where bin Laden apparently lived for up to six years undiscovered.

週三，賓拉登居住的鄰近地區一切如常，他顯然在那兒住了長達六年，卻未被發現。

Pakistan is under growing pressure to explain how the world’s most wanted man got away with it for so long just 60 kilometers from Islamabad.
