Half Brother of Bin Laden Weighs In
A millionaire half brother of Osama bin Laden, the Saudi dissident whom intelligence agencies consider a prime suspect in Tuesday’s attacks, condemned “this criminal attack of terrorism.”
“I would like to express my deepest feelings of sorrow. I am shocked by this criminal attack of terrorism which killed innocent people yesterday in the United States of America,” Yeslam Binladen said in a brief statement.
The Saudi businessman, who has lived in Geneva for 20 years and attained Swiss citizenship in May, did not specifically refer to his half brother in his statement.
