Photo: Jamal Khalifa's Relief Organization In Zamboanga City


Filipino students walk in front of the abandoned International Islamic Relief Organization in Zamboanga City in the southern Philippines. The IIRO, its facade painted white after the 9/11 attacks in the United States, was previously ran by Jamal Khalifa, brother-n-law of al-Qaeda chief Usama bin Laden. Khalifa was shot dead Wednesday 31 Jan 2007 inside his home in Madagascar in an apparent robbery attack. Khalifa lived in Zamboanga City until he escaped after RP authorities linked tagged IIRO and his Al-Makdum University as front to channel funds to terrorists and Muslim rebels in Mindanao.
