Hillary Clinton didn't turn over to the US State Department all the work-related email from her personal account relating to Libya and Benghazi, as she had previously said she had.

Nine e-mails and parts of six others couldn't be found among documents Clinton provided in response to a request from the State Department, the agency said in a letter to the Select House Committee investigating the 2012 terror attacks in Benghazi.

US Representative Trey Gowdy of South Carolina, chairman of the panel, said Clinton's selection of e-mails to provide to the State Department resulted in an incomplete public record. Clinton, now the leading Democratic presidential candidate, exclusively used a private e-mail account while serving as secretary of state.

"The revelation these messages were not originally produced to the State Department by Clinton is significant and troubling," he said.
