BBC: Saudi officials have said they have no suspicions about Osama Bin Laden's widows and children, who arrived in the kingdom late last week.
The three women and reportedly 11 children were deported from Pakistan last week.
A spokesman said the kingdom had acted out of "humanitarian considerations" in offering shelter to the group.
The group spent a year in Pakistani custody after Bin Laden was killed by US special forces in May last year.
"Saudi Arabia acted out of humanitarian considerations... in so far as there are no reports or evidence of any implication in criminal or illegal acts," the official Saudi Press Agency quoted a spokesman as saying, AFP news agency reports.
'Country of choice'
The spokesman said the group had been welcomed by their relatives when they arrived in Jeddah on Thursday night.
The three widows and their children left Pakistan for Saudi Arabia which was, according to a Pakistani interior ministry spokesman, "the country of their choice". » | Sunday, April 29, 2012
