TEHRAN (FNA)- Syrian Ambassador to JordanBahjat Suleiman called Saudi Prince "the real gang leader of terrorists fighting in Syria".Saudi Arabias intelligence chief Prince Bandar bin Sultan is the head of Al-Qaeda terrorist group and the founder of the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant in Syria, Suleiman said, according to an article in Arabic language Ray al-Youm website, Al-Alam reported.
Suleiman said, Osama Bin Laden was the founder of Al-Qaeda, Aymen Zahiri is their apparent leader, and Bandar bin Sultan is the real leader of Al-Qaeda.
He added that the Saudi Prince dwells in a residence near a militant-held area on Syria-Jordan border and leads the terrorists fighting in Syria from there.
The Syrian ambassador also noted that the Syria-Jordan borders have been kept under the control of the so-called Free Syrian Army that enjoys Saudi Arabias support.
Pointing out the Saudi regime's crack-down on its own citizens Suleiman added, "Saudi Arabia is not in a stance to give lessons of democracy and freedom to the Syrian nation."
