On May 20, the US Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) released a sizeable chunk of documents recovered from Osama bin Laden. The documents were taken during the raid of the compound used to hide bin Laden. One of the revelations is of funds donated by an unidentified "Indian brother in Medinah". The first receipt credited to the unidentified Indian dates to May 2008 for Pakistani Rs 292,400. The “Indian brother” paid another Rs 335,000 in July, 2009 — Rs 5,000 of which, bin Laden recorded, was given as a tip to the messenger, according to an Indian Express report. "The documents also show bin Laden funnelled cash from a web of financiers like the "Indian brother" to elements of the jihadist movement in Pakistan, some also linked to the ISI", says the report. Here are some excerpts from the classified documents: A letter to his wife, as reported by NY Times.
