NEW YORK (Reuters) - In August 2013, one of five men accused of helping carry out the September 2001 terrorist attacks met with his defence lawyers in the U.S. detention centre in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Ramzi bin al Shibh, who military prosecutors say relayed money and messages to the 9/11 hijackers, asked his lawyers to send a message to his nephew in Yemen. After the meeting, the defence team's translator went to another part of the U.S. Navy base, called Yemen from a landline and had a five-minute phone conversation with Bin al Shibh's brother.
