Washington has refused to declassify some of its intelligence documents so they can be produced in the German court that is trying Mounir al-Motassadeq, the only man ever convicted of a role in the 9-11 attacks, according to a published report on Friday.
The report in Focus news magazine quoted officials at the Berlin Ministry of Justice as saying US officials informed them of the new position on the release of the documents last week.
The new stance reverses repeated assurances from Washington in recent months that the evidence would be forthcoming. German Interior Minister Otto Schily was told in Washington in February that more documents would be made available.
