Born and raised in Denmark, Morten Storm a reformed gang member , turned Muslim , turned CIA informant published his autobiography where he recalled an incredible series of events, which he said led to the death of Anwar al-Awlaki - former al-Qaeda leader in Yemen .Al-Awlaki was killed in an American-led drone strike in September 2011 -
In his memoire Storm alleges he was working for several western intelligence agencies, having infiltrated al-Qaeda terror cells in Yemen.
The CIA, MI5, MI6 and PET - Denmark Secret Service - all four denied having had any dealing with Storm; putting down his claims to that of a media-craved attention seeker, with a morbid "penchant" for fiction.
"Feeling rejected," as Storm directly put it in his interview with the Associated Press, Morten said the CIA betrayed him by not acknowledging his participation in riding the world of Anwar al-Awlaki, after the "agency had begged him to provide its agents with information while in Yemen."

With no proofs but his words, here is in a nutshell the fantastical tale of Morten Storm, the Danish wannabe spy.

A reformed member of a Danish biker gang, the Bandidos, Storm explained that after years on the "wrong side of the track and several spells in prison," he ended up sharing a jail cell with a fellow Muslim inmate who he claims convinced him of the veracity of the teachings of Islam. In 1997. A fresh convert, Storm decided he had to travel to Yemen to learn more about his new faith and immerse himself in Islamic culture. After several trips to the United Kingdom and Yemen where Morten says he met up with al-Qaeda activists, he began to work his way up the terror ladder. By 2006, Morten was married to a Moroccan Muslim woman and had a son, Ossama -named after al-Qaeda ring leader in Afghanistan, Ossama bin Laden - when he decided to join al-Shabab, al-Qaeda offshoot in Somalia. The group however turned down his offer of help, which made him doubt his faith and his "terror call."

From terror sympathizer Morten then turned western spy.

PET he alleges, Denmark Secret Service, put him in touch with CIA and MI6 operatives in the Middle East to see how he could help further infiltrate terror cells in Yemen and help bring to justice the world's most wanted terrorists back in 2006. For the following six yeard Morten claimed he worked undercover for both the Americans and the British.

Branded a liar by the agencies in question, Storm retaliated by saying he had in his possession an audio recording which proves he was in contact with the CIA. "I know what I did ... I know what I'm saying his true," stressed Storm in the interview.
A European security official not affiliated with any of the four agencies Storm claims to have worked for told the press Storm may have been indeed an informant at some point, quickly adding that if it had been the case the man had seriously overestimated his role and significance in the events which led to the attack and death of Al-Awlaki. Morten claims it was his intel which helped the CIA pinpoint al-Awlaki's position in Yemen. Back in 2011.

"I have a strong feeling that he's overestimating his own role," said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak with the media.

Former U.S intelligence officer Bob Ayer went on the record saying he very much douted the CIA or MI6 for that matter would have allowed Storm, a rogue element to participate in such sensitive operations [reference made to al-Awlaki] especially given his track record and his so-called affiliation to terror groups."Just because he claims to have worked for these agencies doesn't mean he was on anyone's payroll as he almost certainly would not get clearance," said Ayers, who now lives in London. "It is also doubtful that he would have been one of Awlaki's trusted insiders. The only thing less trustworthy than an enemy agent is an enemy agent who has turned."

Despite the controversy surrounding his claims, Storm is adamant; he was a spy and he helped the U.S kill Anwar al-Awlaki - whom he alleges he knew intimately, having been his friend-
