Osama bin Laden and Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar will be put on trial if they are captured, Afghan opposition Northern Alliance Foreign Minister Abdullah Abdullah said today.

"They both have committed many crimes against the Afghan people and massacred innocent civilians in Afghanistan," he told Abu Dhabi satellite television.

"We consider them as war criminals, and they must be brought to court and tried," Mr Abdullah said.

"They carried out massacres in Kabul and other regions of the country, and I myself saw houses and villages destroyed and civilians chased out of their homes," he said.
