No idea, and it is odd.
But they seem to have gone to great lengths to make sure that nobody can prove they killed him -- which is even odder.
They didn't have to hand the body over to Al Jazeera so they could, rightly or wrongly, start questioning whether it really was him -- but to not even give it to a more neutral ally for complete analysis just makes them either liars or incompetent. Either way I'm not sure why anyone would take their word for it.
