US offers $1 million bounty for capture of Osama bin Laden’s son
The US says bin Laden’s son has emerged as a leader of the al Qaeda terrorist group. Saudi Arabia strips Osama bin Laden’s son of citizenship.
A state department notice says the reward will be paid for help locating Hamza bin Laden in any country as part its “rewards for justice” programme.
The announcement says bin Laden’s son has emerged as a leader of the al Qaeda terrorist group.
His father was killed in a US military raid in Pakistan in May 2011.
Hamza bin Laden was named a “specially designated global terrorist” in January 2017.
He has released audio and video messages calling for attacks against the US and its allies.
