The US office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) will be releasing the 28 page chapter of the joint congressional inquiry into the September 11, 2001 attacks with some edits, Congressman Stephen Lynch said in a Friday press release.

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — Since 2013, Lynch has been part of a legislative effort to declassify the 28 page chapter of the 2002 joint congressional inquiry into 9/11 attacks. The pages are believed to contain information relevant to Saudi Arabia and the financial support for the 9/11 hijackers.

“I have been told by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence that the document is being forwarded to Congress with ‘light redactions.’ I am hopeful these redactions do not diminish the probative value of the report,” Lynch stated.

'First Evidence is Coming' That Iran not Connected to 9/11 Attacks
Earlier in the day, Lynch told Sputnik that he was "anticipating" a late morning call with DNI James Clapper on the final decision to declassify the pages after much review by the White House and intelligence community.

“Releasing the 28 pages will answer some of the many questions that remain [over the 9/11 attacks],” Lynch said.

The pages are being released to Congress and will be “made public,” according to Lynch’s press release. It is not yet clear when Congress will publish the pages.
