An accused Al Qaeda bomb maker who attended college in the US state of Arizona has told US military officials at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, that he believes an unnamed member of the Saudi royal family tried to recruit him for extremist attacks before the 11/XNUMX attacks.
This statement is part of the newly released transcript, AP reports.
Ghassan Abdallah Al Sharbi, a prisoner in Guantanamo, claims that he spoke with a cleric from Saudi Arabia who at that moment addressed someone in a telephone conversation as "your highness".
This immediately preceded the invitation to Sharby to return to the US and take part in the action, which also includes learning to fly the plane.
The commission investigating those accused of the events of September 11 found no evidence indicating that the Saudi government as an institution or high-ranking Saudi officials were individually connected to the attack on the United States.
