The fate of Osama bin Laden's remains have been called into question after emails leaked from an intelligence analysis firm say the body of the terror leader was actually sent to the U.S. for cremation.

Terrorist: Osama bin Laden was killed on May 1, 2011 in the now-famous raid by Navy SEAL Team Six at his secret Pakistan compound

According to the emails, the Al Qaeda boss was shot and killed during the famous Navy SEAL Team Six raid on his compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, was transported back to the U.S. and cremated.

The emails were allegedly obtained by the hacker group Anonymous from Stratfor, an organisation dealing with analysis of intelligence and geopolitical analysis.

It's also known as the 'Shadow CIA'.

Last week, Anonymous announced that it had gotten access to 2.7million of the firm’s confidential correspondences, and said they could provide 'the smoking gun for a number of crimes'.

The hackers said Stratfor, based in Austin, Texas, were 'clueless' when it came to database security.

After bin Laden was killed in the famous raid in Pakistan on May 2 2011, the Obama administration said his body was buried at sea off the USS Carl Vinson - in accordance with Islamic tradition.

But in a particular set of emails given to WikiLeaks, the firm’s vice president for intelligence, Fred Burton, says he doubts the official White House version of what happened to bin Laden's body.

Stratfor’s vice-president for intelligence, Fred Burton, says the body was 'bound for Dover, [Delaware] on [a] CIA plane' and 'onward to the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Bethesda [Maryland]'.

Brings a whole new meaning to the term hacking...

to be honest, he might still be alive in the USA ... balls are wired up for information still !

Probably spending his days in Vegas....as an Elvis impersonator!

I'm sure he served me at a kebab shop last night

Cremated?

If the islamists believe that, then no American will be safe anywhere.

To survive in the afterlife the entire body should be buried together, in muslim belief.

(Don't know how this accords with suicide bombers, however)

To the people who leaked the leak:

Why stir up a hornet's nest? What good does it do to anybody?

It gets the "leakers" some badly needed publicity. Unfortunately it could also exacerbate the current "burning the Koran" conflagration going on in Afghanistan and cause additional loss of life.

This entire fiasco is much ado about nothing to begin with. These were speculative e-mails sent to each other immediately after the death of Bin Laden was announced.

The following may help put a few of the hackers behind bars...

Hackers Arrested as One Turns Witness

By CHAD BRAY And REED ALBERGOTTI

Federal prosecutors brought charges against a group of men allegedly behind "LulzSec"—a globe-spanning collective of computer hackers who wreaked havoc on companies, governments and individuals world-wide—after one turned government informant.

Known in hacking circles as "Sabu," the alleged informant, 28-year-old Hector Xavier Monsegur, who lived in and worked from a public-housing project in New York City, was arrested in June by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and became a cooperating witness, according to a person familiar with the matter and a charging document.

The hackers' group known as Lulz Security, or LulzSec, formed last May and claimed responsibility for a series of brazen online attacks.
