In her reply, Sneha Dubey accused Pakistan of sheltering and glorifying Al-Qaeda mastermind Osama bin Laden, who was who was killed by US special forces in 2011, in the army city of Abbottabad. Dubey further said the entire world has suffered because of Pakistan's policies as the country nurtures terrorists in its "backyard".
