Several people who traveled from New York to Pakistan last year with a man accused of intrigues a terrorist attack have since returned to the United States, sources close to the inquiry told CNN.

A grand jury has been in session in New York in the last week as extra charges are considered in the expanding terror inquiry..

Najibullah Zazi, 24, appeared in federal court last week. He pleaded not culpable to charges of conspiring with others to detonate explosives in the United States.

Prosecutors claim that on August 28, 2008, Zazi and others flew to Peshawar, Pakistan, a city with a strong Taliban and al Qaeda presence.

Those currently under observation in the United States include members of Zazi's travel group, according to one source familiar with the investigation. Another source said at least some of the travel group are back in the United States. Officials will not converse the identity, number or location of those under surveillance.
