INTELLIGENCE chiefs spent months tracking meetings between Osama Bin Laden and his henchmen, said reports on the WikiLeaks website.
They knew the al-Qaeda chief and his top aides would regularly rendezvous to plot suicide bomb attacks inside Afghanistan.

Among cell members who were targeted are ex-warlord Mullah Dadullah, a close associate of Bin Laden.
