AN INSIDERS TALE
Yemeni says Laden was at Tora Bora
San Juan, AP:
A doctor who treated wounded al-Qaeda fighters at Tora Bora in Afghanistan has confirmed that Osama bin Laden was at the mountain stronghold as US and Afghan forces attacked and said the al Qaeda chieftain seemed concerned about only his own welfare.


Ayman Saeed Abdullah Batarfi, a doctor from Yemen, told a military panel at Guantanamo Bay that he carried out amputations with a knife and scissors in the caves of Tora Bora during the siege in late 2001 and had to abandon his patients several times when B-52 bombers flew overhead. Batarfi said he was forced to treat the al-Qaeda fighters and was not a terrorist himself. Insider’s account of the siege of Tora Bora is contained in transcripts released by the Pentagon under the Freedom of Information Act.
