Chorus grows to declassify documents related to 9/11

April 17, 2016 20:02

Ahead of US President Barack Obama's visit to Saudi Arabia, there is a renewed push to declassify one of the country's most sensitive documents -- known as the '28 pages', redacted from a top-secret 9/11 investigative report.

A 838-page congressional report would shed light on possible Saudi support for some of the 9/11 hijackers.

For 13 years, the 28 pages have been locked away in a secret vault. Only a small group of people have ever seen them. CBS News spoke to some of them and urged the Obama administration to declassify redacted pages of the report that holds 9/11 secrets.

Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia has warned of economic fallout if the Congress passes 9/11 bill that would allow the Saudi government to be held responsible in American courts for any role in the September 11, 2001, attacks.
