Bin Laden's 3 Wives, 2 Kids Get Prison in Pakistan
Apr 2nd 2012, 10:47

ISLAMABAD –  A Pakistani court sentenced three of Usama bin Laden's widows and two of his older daughters to 45 days in prison for illegal entry and staying in Pakistan, Fox News confirms.

Each of bin Laden's relatives also received a $110 fine. They were sentenced at a hearing in the Islamabad safe house where the family members are currently staying.

Mohammed Amir Khalil, a lawyer for the family, says Monday's verdict gives his clients credit for time served.

Khalil said they were formally arrested on March 3, so they will serve another two weeks in prison and then will be deported with their children. He did not say where they would be deported.

Khalil said he does not plan on appealing the decision.

The family members have been in detention since last May when U.S. commandos killed bin Laden at the house in the Pakistani town of Abbottabad where he was living with his family.
