"The Khadr family has denied the allegations involving the family patriarch and said Mr. Fadil is “spreading rumours and half-truths that he gleaned not from first-hand experience but from reading Internet forums and chatrooms while he was thousands of miles away,” said Joshua Boyle, the husband of Mr. Khadr’s daughter Zaynab. “And he is doing so because he is angry that the Khadrs, long rumored to have been spies for Western governments, did co-operate with Western governments when they began investigating his own actions.”"
