War crimes court complex plan for Guantanamo

The US military is planning to build a £66m (€97m) compound to hold war crimes trials at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, including a two-courtroom facility, dining areas and accommodation for as many as 1,200 people.

The elaborate facility, scheduled to be completed by July, represents one of the most significant upgrades at the isolated base in south-east Cuba since it began taking in men captured by the United States in January 2002.
