ABBOTTABAD: The judicial commission investigating the May 2 raid by US Commandos in Abbottabad recorded statements of at least 30 people on Wednesday, including senior officials.

The commission, which is on a three-day visit to Abbottabad, spent a busy day recording the statements of the officials.

Two army officers also appeared before the commission.

Chairman of the commission Justice (retd) Javed Iqbal and its members Lt-Gen (retd) Nadeem Ahmad, Abbas Khan and Ashraf Jehangir Qazi had on Tuesday visited the compound where the Al Qaeda chief was killed.
