He may have been America's enemy number one, but after US forces killed him in Pakistan, Osama bin Laden was afforded Islamic religious rites by the US military as part of his surprise at-sea burial on Monday. The body was transported to the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson, which brought him to his final resting place somewhere in the north Arabian Sea. [Photo/Agencies] |
