The FBI is seeking information on the whereabouts of a Saudi Arabian man who was an associate of Osama bin Laden for questioning over his alleged involvement with the terrorist group al-Qaeda.
The agency is offering a $5 million reward for the location of Hamza Al Ghamdi, who served as a trusted member of bin Laden's security team in the run-up to the Sept. 11 attacks.
Hamza Al Ghamdi, a Saudi Arabian citizen, is wanted for questioning in connection with his membership in al Qaeda, an organization known to be responsible for committing acts of terrorism against the United States. Al Ghamdi has allegedly participated in armed jihad in several conflict zones, including Afghanistan and Tajikistan. During the events leading up to the September 11, 2001 attacks, al Ghamdi was one of Osama bin Laden’s most trusted associates and was chosen to manage his security detail. Al Ghamdi also allegedly operated al Qaeda guesthouses near Kabul, Afghanistan. He also worked with the late senior al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri. (FBI)
