US investigators admit they do not know what to do with the remains of the terror jet hijackers.
Remains of the suicide pilots have been recovered.
But a public outcry is feared if remains of the most hated men in America are returned to their families.
There are also concerns other Islamic extremists will treat the graves of the hijackers as shrines.
Officials admit they do not yet know how to handle the situation.
The hijackers remains are being held as forensic evidence stored in plastic bags at the Dover Air Force base in Delaware.
The excavation of the Pentagon and Pennsylvania crash sites was completed this week and forensics experts say they have removed all body parts from both scenes.
Officials say that although many of the remains were fragmented and charred, DNA tests should eventually identify all of the victims.
Some remains have been identified by traditional methods, such as fingerprints, dental records and other distinguishing features.
The FBI is believed to be extremely anxious to identify the bodies of the hijackers, as there are still doubts about some of their identities and there could be trials of other conspirators.
