Man's mission to find Osama bin Laden's body
Osama Bin Laden may be dead, but the hunt for the former Al-Qaeda leader is not yet over for one American.
Bill Warren, a Californian deep sea diver and entrepreneur, has vowed to trawl the watery grave to find bin Laden's body in order to prove the US did indeed kill him, celebrity website TMZ reports.
The 59-year-old said the purpose of the underwater expedition is to give Americans the proof President Barack Obama failed to provide.
"I do not trust my government or Obama," he said.
"[The purpose]is to try to find out if he is really dead and to provide to the world the proof that he is".
"The Obama administration should have released the photo, like we did with Billy the Kid, or [John] Dillinger, or even Saddam Hussein," Mr Warren was quoted by the NY Post.
The decade-long hunt for the elusive al-Qaeda leader believed to be the mastermind behind the 9/11 attacks ended on May 2 when he was shot dead in a US special operations raid on his walled compound in Abottabad, Pakistan.
US defense officials said bin Laden was given an ocean burial from an aircraft carrier in the Arabian Sea. (Read more: Bin Laden buried at sea)
Mr Warren told TMZ the search will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and will rely on several boats and high-end technology.
He hopes to do a DNA test on the ship if they find the body and plans to take a film crew to document the whole trip.
According to his company website, Mr Warren began diving commercially when he started his sea urchin business in 1972 and has found one shipwreck, an English merchant ship in Santa Cruz Island
