Son of Osama Bin Laden Deported and Barred from France

French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau confirmed the deportation but did not disclose further details. Authorities acted upon comments made by Binladin in 2023.

Omar Binladin, the son of Osama bin Laden, has been expelled from France due to controversial social media posts that were found to praise terrorism, according to the country's interior minister.

The individual had been living in Normandy, painting landscapes, before French authorities decided to take action against him. The move comes after posts made earlier in 2023 raised alarm.

Efforts to reach Binladin for comment were unsuccessful, while the specifics of his deportation remain undisclosed as the French government maintains a strict stance against terrorism glorification.
