The U.S. government on Monday agreed to release a Yemeni surgeon who reportedly treated al Qaida wounded at Tora Bora in Afghanistan under a new review ordered by President Barack Obama meant to empty the prison camps at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Ayman Batarfi, 38, told a military review panel in 2005 that he was a humanitarian worker who found himself at Tora Bora in 2001 while Osama bin Laden was in the area, according to a Pentagon transcript.
