Dr Rowan Williams warned that the shooting dead of the unarmed al Qaeda leader meant justice was not "seen to be done".

The differing accounts of the American special forces' operation which have emerged from the White House since Monday "have not helped", he said.

Answering a question from the Daily Telegraph, at a press conference in London, Dr Williams said: "The killing of an unarmed man is always going to leave a very uncomfortable feeling because it does not look as if justice is seen to be done."

A spokesman for Archbishop Vincent Nichols, the head of the Catholic church in England and Wales, said the church would not be commenting on the killing of the al-Qaeda leader.
