According to religious factors there was concern that if he was buried on land, his grave will be a shrine to his followers. Whether they were supposed to provide photos or proof that he was dead was also a concern. A country claimed to be Saudi Arabia where Osama was born denied his body. To avoid Osama’s grave to become a shrine they decided to burry him at sea.
