 Osama Bin Laden has no intention of being taken alive and has designated a “special gun” to be shot with in the event of imminent capture, one of the Al Qaeda chief’s former bodyguards told the CBS news magazine ‘60 Minutes’.
"What kind of gun?"
"It's a special gun!" |
Abu Jandal, who was with Bin Laden in Afghanistan from 1996 to 2000, said that his old boss had given strict instructions on what should happen if he was cornered. “If he was going to be captured, Sheikh Osama prefers to be killed,” Jandal said in the CBS interview to be broadcast on Sunday.

Jandal, who lives in Yemen, said he believed Bin Laden was hiding out in Afghanistan rather than Pakistan and warned that his most recent threats of another terror strike on the United States should be taken extremely seriously. “When Sheik Osama promises something, he does it,” he said. “So I believe Osama Bin Laden is planning a new attack inside the United States, this is certain.”
