In this Pentagon-approved sketch by court artist Janet Hamlin, the Sept. 11 accused co-conspirators attend a pretrial hearing the Guantanamo Bay U.S. Naval Base in Cuba, Monday, June 16, 2014. Defense council James Herrington is at podium addressing presiding Judge James Pohl. The accused, right to left: Khalid Sheikh Mohmmad, Walid bin Attash, Ramzi bin al shibh, Aziz Ali, Mustafa al Hawsawi. Lawyers for Guantanamo prisoners charged in the Sept. 11 attack say the FBI has questioned more people who work as support staff on their legal teams than previously disclosed, a development that may prompt a new detour in an already snarled case as the war crimes tribunal reconvened Monday at this U.S. base.

FILE - In this photo Nov. 20, 2013 file photo reviewed by the U.S. military, a U.S. Navy nurse stands next to a chair with restraints, used for force-feeding, and a tray displaying nutritional shakes, a tube for feeding through the nose, and lubricants, including a jar of olive oil, during a tour of the detainee hospital at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba. Attorneys for a Syrian prisoner have begun studying hours of video showing him being removed from his cell, placed in a restraint chair and fed by a tube with liquid nutrients. They are looking for evidence of what he has portrayed to them as abusive force-feeding, akin to torture, during the months that he has participated in a hunger strike that drew the attention of President Barack Obama and led to a renewed effort to close the prison.
