Settled in Bosnia
Following their successful war of liberation, in 1995, the new Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina offered citizenship to all foreign volunteers who had fought on their behalf.
Al-Harbi settled in Bosnia, until arrest warrants were issued against him, and eighteen other men, in 1997. The allegation against Al-Harbi was that he had provided a safehouse for terrorists.
Al-Harbi disappeared from the time his arrest warrant was issued and his appearance in a video taped in late 2001 where he had an extended conversation with Osama bin Laden.

Famous quotes containing the words settled in and/or settled:
“As it grew darker, I was startled by the honking of geese flying low over the woods, like weary travellers getting in late from Southern lakes, and indulging at last in unrestrained complaint and mutual consolation. Standing at my door, I could hear the rush of their wings; when, driving toward my house, they suddenly spied my light, and with hushed clamor wheeled and settled in the pond. So I came in, and shut the door, and passed my first spring night in the woods.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“And the case of butterflies so rich it looks
As if all summer settled there and died.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
