Bin Laden may escape by helicopter
The Pentagon believes Osama bin Laden could be planning to escape from Afghanistan by helicopter.
The US Defence Secretary says bin Laden may have access to a helicopter. Bin Laden is reported to have said he'd rather die than be arrested by the US.
A Taliban spokesman has said he will never be arrested alive. Donald Rumsfeld believes bin Laden could still escape by helicopter and rendezvous with a waiting jet in a nearby country.
He said 75% of the Taliban's fleet of helicopters has been destroyed but some may have been hidden and available to bin Laden.
