Moawalla traveled from London to Boston on 9/10/01 where he stayed at the Four Seasons Hotel. During his stay in Boston, Moawalla met with representatives from Wellington Management. He was scheduled to return to London on British Airways on 9/16/01. However, after the terrorists attacks of 9/11/01, all flights were cancelled and he could not return as scheduled. Moawalla was contacted by the bin Laden family and advised that a charter was being hired to leave the U.S. Moawalla then came to D.C. and stayed at the Park Hyatt Hotel, 1201 24th Street, N.W., Washington, D.C., telephone 202/789-1234. He thought that the Saudi Arabian Embassy had suggested to the bin Laden family that they leave the U.S. for safety reasons because of their relationship to Osama bin Laden. Moawalla believed that the Saudi Arabian Embassy made the arrangements for the charter flight and had coordinated everything with the U.S. government. From its origination in Los Angeles, CA today, the plane was scheduled to make stops en route to pick up various bin Laden family members, including several children and students. According to Moawalla, the children were "being taunted at school" because of their association with the bin Laden family. Moawalla too felt as though he may be in danger since he' worked for the bin Laden family. To his knowledge, the charter flight was next scheduled to stop in Boston, MA to pick up additional passengers, then to Paris for refueling, and on to Geneva, Switzerland. Moawalla planned to deplane in Paris and catch a commercial flight to London. Some members of the bin Laden family were scheduled to deplane in Geneva with others traveling on to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Moawalla said that Abdullah bin Laden, 'al-sp a half brother of Os'ama, was coordinating the charter flight with all the-, family members. He \.was a Harvard Law School graduate currently residing irr| ] Moawalla was in Boston with Abdullah until Sunday when Moawalla came to D.C. for the charter flight. Global Administration, Limited Global was started in 1990 for the purpose of reviewing investment proposals for the bin Laden family. There are five Global employees who serve as investment advisors. This aspect of the bin Laden family business is managed by Shafig bin Laden with whom Moawalla arrived at Piedmont Hawthorne Aviation this evening. Shafig was described as the President/Owner of Global. Moawalla has been employed by Global since 1990. He obtained his,Master of Business Administration (MBA) from University of Massachusetts, (UM) in 1976. He attended UM- on a student VISA and had a U.S. Social Security Account Number during that time (number unrecalled). Moawalla has been a British citizen since 1986. He also maintains citizenship with Tunisia as well. As an investment advisor at Global, Moawalla reviewed proposals for different investments, prepared investment summaries, and submitted them to .the bin Laden brothers to decide which avenues to pursue. Once the investment proposals were accepted by the family, they were then provided to the "professional investment managers". These investment companies thereafter conducted the financial transactions at their own discretion based upon the plan proposed by Moawalla and approved.by the family. Moawalla provided the following investment firms and his contacts within each: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

"black sheep" of the family. The family "cursed" Osama bin Laden as he has brought much shame to the family. To his knowledge, the bin Laden family has never provided any financial assistance to Osama bin Laden since his exile from Saudi Arabia. Moawalla believed that the news reports of Osama bin Laden's financial worth being $300 million were greatly exaggerated. Moawalla believed that Osama bin Laden grew up in a different household than Shafig bin Laden and many of the 52 bin Laden children. He did not know nor could he really guess at the net worth of the bin Laden family. He did not know how the family fortunes are distributed among the 52 brothers and sisters of the bin Laden family. In the early 1990s, the bin Laden family worked with the Saudi government to build roads throughout the country. Osama bin Laden did not agree with this activity on the part of his family and took exception with both his family and the Saudi government. In 1993 or 1994, Saudi Arabia revoked the citizenship of Osama bin Laden. Moawalla felt certain that the bin Laden family has had no contact with Osama bin Laden.since that time. Moawalla explained that in their financial dealings with the various investment companies' identified above, the bin Laden family had to provide formal documentation to the investment managers showing that the bin Laden family did not support or fund Osama bin Laden. These investment companies then performed their own due diligence to corroborate the information provided by the family. Moawalla did not believe that Shafig bin Laden and/or his brothers had any current relationship with their brother, Osama bin Laden. Moawalla had no knowledge of the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City, New York or the Pentagon in the Washington, D.C. area. He recognized the magnitude of the tragedy and pledged to provide any information to which he becomes privy. He did not believe, that other bin Laden family members had any knowledge of the attacks beyond that which was reported in the press. Moawalla said that if, for an instant, he believed that the bin Laden family knew of the planned terrorists attacks, he would not be working for them. Moawalla provided the following information about some of the other passengers listed on the flight manifest: Najia bin Laden - Osama's sister. returning to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
