During the 1990s , al-Quso trained in Al-Qaeda camps in Afghanistan . In January 2000 al-Quso planned to meet co-conspirators of the USS '' Cole '' bombing in Singapore but he failed to get the proper travel visa and went to Bangkok , Thailand to meet instead . In Bangkok he met with Tawfiq bin Attash ( a.k.a. Kallad Bin Attash ) , and he also met with September 11 hijackers of American Airlines Flight 77 , Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khaled al-Mihdhar in Malaysia . Tawfiq bin Attash was known as Osama bin Laden ’s “ run boy ” although he had a peg leg , he acted as an intermediary for bin Laden . Al-Quso confessed to acting as a bag-man and reported giving Attash $ 36,000 for a “ new prosthetic leg ” although it was probably used instead to pay al-Mihdhar ’s and al-Hazmi ’s travel expenses to the US . However , according to the “ run boy ” Attash , that amount was much less , about $ 10,000 - $ 12,000
