Saudi: Bin Laden Not Linked to Bombing
The Associated Press, Mon 29 Oct 2001
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP) — Saudi Arabia says Osama bin Laden has no
links to a number of bombings in Saudi Arabia, including the 1996
Khobar bombing that killed 19 U.S. soldiers.
Deputy Interior Minister Prince Ahmed bin Abdul Aziz said Sunday that
bin Laden ``is not involved in any explosions in the kingdom.''
Bin Laden, an exiled Saudi dissident living in Afghanistan, is the
prime suspect in the Sept. 11 terror attacks on the United States.
In the past year, Saudi Arabia has been rocked by a series of small
bombings targeting foreigners, including one on Oct. 6 that killed one
American and another still unidentified man. One American, a Briton
and two Filipinos were injured in the bombing in the eastern city of
Khobar.
In 1996, 19 U.S. servicemen were killed when members of the dissident
Saudi Hezbollah group bombed the Khobar Towers complex in Dhahran,
near Khobar. U.S. prosecutors have indicted 14 people in that case.
Days after the Oct. 6 Khobar bombing, Interior Minister Prince Nayef
was quoted as saying that he could not rule out a link between the
bombing and the attacks in the United States.
Ahmed, during a news conference, also discussed the events leading up
to the kingdom's decision to revoke bin Laden's Saudi citizenship.
``Osama bin Laden, as is known, was asked to return to the kingdom
when he was in Sudan because it was found that his views were unsound
and he was surrounded by unworthy people,'' Ahmed said. Because bin
Laden refused to return to Saudi Arabia, the government revoked his
citizenship.
On Sunday, U.S. Sen. John McCain accused Saudi Arabia of doing too
little to fight terrorism. Speaking on CNN's ``Late Edition,'' he said
Saudi authorities were not doing ``what the president asked all
countries to do, and that is to take sides.''
Saudi Arabia was home to at least half of the suicide hijackers and is
believed to house many more suspects. But the interior minister has
said Saudi authorities have been unable to establish any links between
bank accounts in the kingdom and bin Laden.
