Call for FOI requests as N.Y. Port Authority deny pre-9/11 'power down'

July 20, 2007 - British IT engineer Scott Forbes was working in New York's World Trade Center in September 2001 and lost 89 of his work colleagues in the 9/11 attacks.

Click here to listen to his eyewitness account of the powering down of the security systems and mysterious 'cabling' contractors working in the south tower the weekend immediately prior to the attacks.

Scott Forbes has demanded disclosure of documents authorizing the power down and details of who the contractors were.

From his nearby flat, on his day off, Scott witnessed the second plane strike the tower just below offices where his colleagues were working.

The 9/11 Commission were not interested that the WTC security cameras and other security systems were paralyzed between 12 noon on Saturday September 8 and 2pm on Sunday September 9, 2001.

The New York Port Authority now deny that there ever was any power outage. It has become Scott’s mission to get a satisfactory explanation.

Scott is appealing to anyone and everyone, and particularly those in New York, to file freedom of information requests with the Port Authority for disclosure of the documents authorizing the power down and details of who the contractors were.

On July 18, 2007, Scott was interviewed in London by Tony Gosling and Fran Scott.
