Reply #9: Most criminal investigations involve questioning the family don't they? [View All]

Doesn't this seem like standard procedure? Their husband's a murderer, a terrorist and a criminal - virtually any agency on the face of the planet would want to question the family. If Pakistan doesn't allow even cursory access, that would be telling.

That said, I'm sure Pakistan won't give them up to the US to take out of the country. Also I'm sure they'll use the fact that they're holding them to "extort" something from the US in return for access to the family. Is the information that would be learned worth whatever "price" we have to pay? I'm not sure. And if the US is looking for the wives to implicate Pakistan, they sure as hell won't say anything that may get them into Pakistan's torture rooms while they are in Pakistan custody.
