Musharraf said that during the training period at the Pakistan Military Academy, he used to go running where Osama was killed by US commandos in the daring raid, reported The Telegraph.
The house where Osama was found was constructed in 2005 and was located barely a few hundred yards from the Pakistan Military Academy.
'It surprises me it was next to the Pakistan military academy,' The Telegraph quoted Musharraf as saying.
'The location is next to the place where I used to run nine miles, en route, maybe passing in front of the house. That is surprising.'
The media report said that Musharraf's statement means that military cadets regularly run past Osama's home.
Musharraf said he had no knowledge of Osama's whereabouts when he ruled Pakistan from 1999 to 2008.
'One can call it a failing or a shortcoming of intelligence, but then it's a shortcoming of both intelligences - Pakistan and the United States.' IANS
