Guantanamo Bay hearings to resume

In January, US President Barack Obama signed an order halting the controversial military trials process for terrorist suspects.

But he now says he will press ahead with the military commissions after introducing a number of safeguards.

The five men accused of plotting the 9/11 attacks are among detainees due to appear in court this week.

Many thought President Obama had sounded the death knell for military commissions at Guantanamo Bay.
