On the final day of hearings none of the five accused men came to court, all opting to stay behind in their prison cells.

Judge James Pohl heard several more hours of arguments on the issue of a gag order that prohibits any talk about the interrogations that the men were subjected to at secret CIA prison sites prior to their tranfer to Guantanamo Bay in 2006.
The judge will likely issue a written decision on whether the defendants' memories of the events are in fact classified, as the protective order now states.
