#1 One of those damned if you do, damned if you don't situations. US officials figured that if they sent an FBI team they would be accused of using it to cover up evidence of US involvement in the crash (ex-station chief Milt Bearden's book is interesting on this). And here NOT sending an FBI is regarded as suspicious. That said, Zia's crash was suspicious and may well not have been accidental.

#2 Forcibly hindered = did not send FBI team? How utterly incompetent does Mr. ul-Haq consider his own investigators to be?
