From the Daily Mail (UK):
The United States will not pay out the $25 million bounty placed on the head of Osama bin Laden, government sources have revealed.
Three weeks after the al Qaeda leader was shot dead by a SEAL team at his compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, officials said his death was the result of electronic intelligence and not information from any one informant.
The decision ends speculation that an insider within the terror group had helped the CIA track down bin Laden to his lair in Pakistan.
It will also come as bad news to Gary Faulkner, the self-styled ‘Rocky Mountain Rambo’, who went on a one-man mission to Paklistan last year in a bid to find the terror chief.
Mr Faulkner was found was found wandering in the woods of northern Pakistan armed with a pistol, sword and night-vision goggles.
He claims he had a hand in forcing bin Laden out of the mountains where he supposedly was hiding.
But a senior U.S. official familiar with the bin Laden hunt told ABC News today: ‘We do not expect a reward to be paid.
The $25m bounty was posted soon after the 9/11 terror attacks on New York and Washington DC, as the terror leader headed the FBI’s ‘Most Wanted’ list.
