Al-Haramain Islamic Foundation was a charity foundation, based in Saudi Arabia, alleged by the U.S. Department of the Treasury in a September 2004 press release to have "direct links" with Osama bin Laden. The charity is now banned worldwide by United Nations Security Council Committee 1267.
The Office of Foreign Assets Control
of the United States Department of the Treasury had already banned
various branches of this organization at various times, including the US
branch on 9 September 2004.
Under various names it had branches in Afghanistan, Albania,
Bangladesh, Bosnia, Comoros, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Kenya, the
Netherlands, Nigeria, Pakistan, Somalia, Tanzania, and the United
States.
There was one branch of the foundation in the United States, located at Ashland, Oregon. The Ashland chapter assisted the Islamic Society of Springfield, Missouri,
in the purchase of a prayer house, but the Springfield organization
shares no common directors and is not and never was under the control of
the Al-Haramain organization.
