Alleged mastermind to face trial at Guantanamo military court
Military judge sets trial date for Guantánamo detainees accused of plotting attacks
Continuation
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States, will go on trial before a U.S. military court at Guantanamo Bay on June 5, 2028, a spokesman for the court said Thursday.
Mohammed, also known as "KSM," was a top lieutenant of al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden before his capture in Pakistan in March 2003. He was held in secret CIA facilities for three years before being transferred to the U.S. naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in 2006. The trained engineer has claimed responsibility for orchestrating the 9/11 attacks "from A to Z," which killed nearly 3,000 people after hijacked planes struck the Twin Towers in New York, the Pentagon in Washington, and a field in Pennsylvania.
The trial date was set by Air Force Lt. Col. Michael Schrama, marking the latest milestone in a case that has faced repeated delays. A plea deal that would have removed the death penalty from consideration was withdrawn last year. Mohammed has also claimed involvement in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, which killed six people, and the 2002 beheading of U.S. journalist Daniel Pearl.
Guantanamo Bay, an isolated naval base, has been used by the United States to detain militants captured during the "War on Terror" following the 9/11 attacks. The facility once held roughly 800 prisoners, but most have since been transferred to other countries, leaving only a small fraction remaining.
The trial’s start date may still shift, as procedural decisions—including which evidence will be admitted—remain pending. Mohammed and three co-defendants are among the last detainees held at the Guantanamo Bay facility .
