Legal Opinion / Court Document (Federal Supplement, 2d Series) • 2.49 MB
View

This document is page 786 from a Federal Supplement legal opinion (likely *In re Terrorist Attacks on September 11, 2001*) bearing a House Oversight stamp. It details allegations by plaintiffs that Prince Turki (Head of Saudi Intelligence) and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia provided financial and logistical support to al Qaeda and the Taliban, including facilitating money transfers and supporting charities linked to terrorism. The text also outlines Prince Turki's defense, where he denies these claims, citing his official role in attempting to extradite Osama bin Laden and Saudi Arabia's severance of ties with the Taliban in 1998. NOTE: While the prompt mentions Epstein, this specific page deals exclusively with 9/11 litigation and does not mention Jeffrey Epstein.
