"A terror suspect held at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, was a commander for Osama bin Laden during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan in the 1980s and helped the al-Qaida leader escape his mountain hideout at Tora Bora in 2001, according to a U.S. government document. The document, provided to The Associated Press in response to a Freedom of Information request, says the unidentified detainee 'assisted in the escape of Osama bin Laden from Tora Bora.' It is the first definitive statement from the Pentagon that bin Laden was at Tora Bora and evaded U.S. pursuers." Government says bin Laden eluded U.S. pursuers in Tora Bora region
