US scotches reports on bin Laden's capture

The US has scotched reports coming out of Pakistan that its forces have captured Osama bin Laden.

''That would be news to everybody in this room. No, I haven't heard anything -- haven't heard anything like that,'' spokesman Scott McClellan told reporters at the White House here yesterday.

Asked to clarify what prompted President Pervez Musharraf to say a couple of weeks ago that Pakistani forces would have bin Laden by the year-end, the spokesman said, ''I speak for the President.

Obviously, I don't speak for President Musharraf.'' As for whether the capture of bin Landen would signal the end of the war on terrorism, McClellan said the war on terrorism would continue.
