News from the Other Side: Al-Qaida Leader’s Son Tortured To Death
2002-11-16
Source: Sada News, Translated By Jihad Unspun
Twenty Four year old Saif Alwahid, son of Saif Al Adil, an important member of Al- Qaida in Egypt, has earned martyrdom from torture at the hands of the American military and the FBI.
He will be missed... By his Mom, I guess...
Saif Al Adil’s wife and daughter are still incarcerated (may Allah grant them patience and Hasten their release). The American military arrested them at Tora Bora in injured condition. Saif Alwahid, son of the former Amir of Al Jihaad Egypt, was been shifted to the Kabul jail one month ago from an undisclosed location. Due to extreme torture, he was passing blood in his urine, his body had been burnt with fiery hot iron bars, he was burnt with lit cigarettes and one thumb and finger from his left hand had been chopped off. According to an eyewitness, the FBI teams, which include females, questioned him even as he was brought into Kabul jail. Saif Al Wahid, all three family members were also detained with him for a week and then were separated.
"Talk, Saif, or Sadie will chop off yer other thumb!"
"I'll never talk, infidel wenches!"
"Hand me that iron bar, Flossie!"
"Uh... Hey! That thing looks... hot!"

According to the source, the Mujahid’s family was also arrested by Northern Alliance soldiers who had covered their faces with a black cloth. The prisoners included Saif Al Adil’s wife, his 11 year old daughter Al Qum, his 24 year old son Saif Al Wahid and another unidentified Mujahid.
That would be Cousin Bob...
Saif Al Wahid was brutally tortured on Saturday and Sunday by teams of Federal Bureau of Investigation, earning Shahada. The American authorities have not handed over his body to either the Afghan authorities or the relief agencies.
Y'see, they're still picking up pieces of it...
According to news agencies, Saif Al Wahid’s father, Saif Al Adil is a higher level member of Al Qaeda and is wanted in connection with the September 11th attacks. Saif Al Adil is from Egypt and has in the past been the leader of Al Jihad Egypt. He came to Afghanistan to fight the Soviets and he is considered a close ally of Osama Bin Laden. When the bombs started falling on Afghanistan, Saif Al Adil was in the Tora Bora Mountains with his family members. According to the source, Saif Al Wahid had been with his father for 7 years in Afghanistan, he was a Hafiz (knew the Quraan by heart) and was one of the Commanders of the groups of Mujahideen.
A young man of profound accomplishment...
The FBI has kept the records of all the Mujahideen and their families in Kabul jail confidential. According to the source, he claims that over 11,000 Mujahideen and their families ranging including Taliban, Al-Qaida, Pakistanis and others are being kept in Pul Charkhee jail in Kabul where they are subjected to severe hardships and oppression. The prisoners also include over 1100 Mujahideen of a convoy of the banned “Shariat Muahammadi” group.
Wow! 11,000 Bad Guys jugged in Kabul! Must be like the Black Hole of Calcutta in there! No wonder there hasn't been any serious Taliban resurgence in Afghanistan — they're all in the calaboose!
