Osama bin Laden has been buried at sea after being killed in a U.S. raid in Pakistan.

U.S. officials had said that bin Laden's body would be handled in accordance with Muslim traditions, which includes strict rules on burial taking place within 24 hours after death.

So why was bin Laden buried at sea? There may be a couple of reasons -- the first being 'what country would take him?'

Bin Laden was a Saudi national, but officials say that the Kingdom was unwilling to have his remains repatriated.
