To which Shepherd reluctantly agreed to.
However, the interrogation still bare somewhat of a success, as from Hassan's cellphone, Laswell managed to locate a cartel facility in Spain, which made her and Captain Price alongside with Gaz to scout it out.
===Death===
Following their conversation with Valeria after the battle at the Fuerzas Especiales Headquarters. Task Force 141 learnt about the location of the final missile and Hassan's: They're in Chicago. Task Force 141 alongside with the MARSOC Marines were then deployed in Chicago, with their primary objective is to stop the missile from launching and killing Hassan, both of which were located in the Arch Industries Tower.
Hassan then fled into an elevator after realizing that Task Force 141 got close to his location. However, Soap, a member of the Task Force still managed to reach him and took the missile controller that Hassan was holding. Hassan and his Al-Qatala Special Forces guards pursued Soap in an attempt to stop him disarming the missile, with Hassasn taunting him from afar. However, Soap managed to remain hidden long enough to disarm the missile, craft weapons, and sneak up on the guards. Just as Soap killed the final guard, Hassan himself ambushed Soap, shooting him repeatedly with an AK-47 and knocking him to the ground.
Hassan approached the incapacitated Soap to finish him off but realized he was out of ammunition, so Hassan smacked him unconscious with the rifle instead. Soap awoke in time to see Hassan drag towards a window, which Hassan blew open with an explosive. However, Soap was able to tell Ghost, who was located on a roof nearby, to watch the window. Hassan reminded Soap of his pledge that his nation (not knowing Soap is British) would see fire, and ridiculed Soap for thinking he could stop him. As Hassan picked up Soap to throw him out the window to his death, he boasted that they were not attacking, but invading. Ghost got Hassan in his sights and shot him directly in the head with his sniper rifle, instantly killing the Major.
