Wasn't he offered safe passage via air, but refused?

That's a point of contention between the gov't and the family. The gov't claims he refused safe passage, but the family says his last e-mail indicated he was desperately trying to find a way out, so the gov't claim doesn't make sense. It's in the NPR story I linked above.
