Who is Abdallah bin Laden?

Abdallah bin Osama bin Mohammed bin Awad bin Laden, 44, is the son of Osama bin Laden.

He hit headlines and alerted global terror cops in the 1980s due to his affiliation with the Annandale, Virginia offices of the World Assembly of Muslim Youth, an organisation long suspected of terrorism links by the FBI.

Shortly after 9/11, investigative reporter Greg Palast also noted links between Abdallah's old home to the building that housed The World Assembly of Muslim Youth, and the closeness of the listed address of the hijackers who attacked New York and Washington.

He now runs a business in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, and is closely watched by authorities there, with his movement out of the country restricted.

According to reports, he has never denounced his terrorist dad and requested bin Laden's death certificate from US authorities following his death, but was informed one had not been issued.

Who is Saad bin Laden?

Saʻd bin Usāmah bin Muḥammad bin Awaḍ bin Lādin, a once-active al Qaeda member, died in 2009.

Following 9/11 he fled to Iran and was detained by authorities there.

But in 2002, he was linked to the bombing of a Tunisian synagogue which killed 19, and again in 2003 linked to further bombings in Saudi Arabia and Morocco but his family have always denied he was involved.

In July 2009 NPR reported Saad had been killed in a US drone strike.
