New allegations have emerged from the man described as the “20th 9/11 hijacker,” alleging members of the Saudi royal family supported al Qaeda.
According to CNN, Zacarias Moussaoui, who pleaded guilty in 2005 to six terror-related charges, makes the allegations in a sworn statement contained in a brief submitted Tuesday as part of an ongoing civil case by the families of 9/11 victims.
Moussaoui says that in the late 1990s, he was tasked by Osama bin Laden to create a digital database recording al Qaeda’s donors. Every day for two or three months, he says, he entered names of the group’s donors into a Toshiba computer, along with how much they gave.
