Several relatives of  bin Laden are among the 4 people who died when a private jet crash-landed at a car auction site in Hampshire.

"We do believe three of the deceased to be the mother, sister and brother-in-law of the owner of the aircraft, all of whom are from the Bin Laden family, but formal post-mortem examinations are ongoing," Hampshire police said in a statement, adding that the Bin Laden family members were visiting the UK on vacation. The fourth victim, the pilot, was not a member of the family.

The statement, translated by the BBC, said:

“His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Nawaf Al Saud . . . has paid his condolences to the family and relatives of Mohammed bin Laden at Blackbushe Airport in Britain for the great loss they have suffered as a result of the crash of the plane that was carrying the family.”
