FILE - This undated file image obtained from Facebook shows Ahmed Abu Khattala, an alleged leader of the deadly 2012 attacks on Americans in Benghazi, Libya. A Libyan militant was indicted Tuesday, Oct. 14, 2014, on new charges arising from the 2012 Benghazi attacks, including crimes punishable by the death penalty, the Justice Department said. The new 18-count grand jury indictment, which includes multiple counts of murder, had been widely expected since Abu Khattala was captured in June by U.S. special forces and brought to the United States to face trial.

The government is applying ill-advised procedures as a form of punishment for hunger strikers at Guantanamo Bay prison, a medical doctor told a federal court Tuesday, Oct. 7, 2014. The assessment by Dr. Steven Miles came at a hearing where lawyers for Abu Wa'el Dhiab are seeking to improve the conditions of confinement that Dhiab faces at the hands of his jailers. Lawyers for the Justice Department told the court that the military only feeds prisoners against their will to keep them alive and follows all laws when it does so. (AP Photo/Charles Dharapak,File)
