Al Qaeda Leader’s Son, Wife Remain in Egypt After ’UK Visa’ Refusal

The son of the al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden and his wife are reported to be staying in Egypt, after authorities in London banned him from entering Britain to live with his British wife, official sources informed APA Wednesday.

UK officials on Wednesday, told the 27-year old Omar Osama bin Laden that: “There is evidence that he is still loyal to his father, who is held responsible for the deaths of 52 people in the London bombings of July 7, 2005″.

Mr bin Laden is now appealing against the refusal to grant him a visa and says that it is wrong to ban him from Britain on the basis of his parentage and inaccurate media reports about his beliefs.

The young bin Laden insists he wants to live in Cheshire, central England, with his British wife, Zaina Alsabah bin Laden, 52, formerly known as Jane Felix-Brown.

The couple, whose marriage last year, after a holiday romance in Saudi Arabia, provoked huge attention and curiosity across the world, have been living in Egypt while awaiting Mr bin Laden’s visa application to be processed.
