A group of UK hackers claims to have captured confidential banking information on the wanted terrorist Osama bin Laden, and Al Qaeda, the organisation he heads up. According to 27-year-old millionaire Kim Schmitz, otherwise known as convicted hacker "Kimble", the group broke into systems at the AlShamal Islamic Bank to obtain the data.

The attack apparently happened after a $10m reward offered up by Schmitz, was answered by an unidentified member of the Islamic banking community who pinpointed the AlShamal bank as the host for bin Laden's accounts. Schmitz posted the reward offer along with a letter to the governments of the world, urging them to band together to "fight terror!"
