Documents from the U.S. Department of Justice related to the Epstein case mention details of correspondence with Al-Oweis. In one of the letters, she inquired whether Epstein was in town and indicated that she wanted to introduce him to her sister. Additionally, she invited him to Beirut. These messages drew attention after the documents were published.
Epstein, for his part, also emphasized his connections. In October 2011, he mentioned in a response letter that he had someone in his house who could be useful for future projects. Four years later, in September 2015, Hind Al-Oweis was appointed senior advisor at the UAE Permanent Mission to the UN.
However, the published materials do not provide direct evidence that Epstein facilitated this appointment in any way.
Additionally, the released documents show that UAE businesswoman Aziza Al-Ahmadi organized the international transport of fragments of the kiswah — the sacred covering of the Kaaba — from Saudi Arabia to Epstein's home in Florida in February-March 2017, when he was already serving his sentence and was registered as a sex offender.
The kiswah holds significant religious importance for Muslims. Each year, the old covering is replaced with a new one, and its fragments become valuable artifacts.
Who is Aziza Al-Ahmadi, mentioned in the Epstein materials?
Details about Aziza Al-Ahmadi's personal life have not yet been confirmed by official sources from Saudi Arabia and the UAE. According to publicly available information, she works in the Department of Culture and Tourism of Abu Dhabi and is the CEO of Boss Bunny Games, a studio specializing in creating mobile games for the MENA region and beyond. Previously, she worked at Zain KSA and released the first "GRI Sustainability Report" in the telecommunications sector.
