Egypt denies entry to Osama bin Laden’s son

Egypt denied entry to one of Osama bin Laden’s sons on Sunday, becoming the third country to reject the self-proclaimed “ambassador for peace.”

Omar Osama bin Laden, 27, and his British wife arrived at Cairo International Airport over the weekend and were promptly put on a plane to the Gulf Arab country of Qatar.

Bin Laden was denied entry after he unsuccessfully sought political asylum in Spain, claiming he would not be safe if he returned to an Arab country. The couple had lived in Egypt for the past year.

One of the al-Qaida leader’s 19 children, Omar Osama bin Laden caused a tabloid storm last year after he married Zaina Alsabah, a British citizen.
