October: Bin Laden is in Qatar

A high ranking Arab source disclosed that the leader of al-Qaida organization Osama Bin laden and al-Mulla Omar, the leader of the Taliban movement, and Ayman al-Zawahiri, the assistant of Bin Laden, and other 25 persons representing key al-Qaida leaders are in Qatar.

The Egyptian October Magazine quoted the source as saying that Bin Laden and his group are living in a place far from the capital, Doha, under strong guarding to the extent that the guards do not know who is being guarded.

The magazine added that the source stressed that Bin Laden, al-Mulla Omar and their colleagues fled from Afghanistan before the entry of the American forces to it in a way which "was not recognized nor can be imagined."
