A mansion with a notorious past in the US state of Florida is facing the wrecking ball, reports the New York Post.

Once owned by Khalil bin Laden, brother to Al-Qaeda’s co-founder and terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden, the Oakland mansion situated just off West Colonial Drive is now undergoing demolition.

Reported by NBC affiliate WESH, the history-laden estate was snapped up by Khalil in the 1980s.

However, Khalil’s family swiftly departed the vacation abode in the immediate wake of the 9/11 attacks, leaving the mansion to face its fate.

County records obtained by WESH reveal that the property changed ownership as recently as 2021, when it was acquired by an LLC.

This LLC wasted no time in filing a notice in January to commence “improvements” to the property, signaling the beginning of the end for the infamous mansion.
