8月27日，担任军事法庭法官的美国空军法官宣布，被控为2001年“9·11”恐怖袭击主谋的哈立德·谢赫·穆罕默德及其三名同谋的审判将于2028年6月5日开庭12。穆罕默德面临2977项谋杀、恐怖主义、劫机和攻击平民的指控2。其同案被告包括瓦利德·本·阿塔什、阿里·阿卜杜勒·阿齐兹·阿里和穆斯塔法·哈瓦萨维12。2001年的“9·11”袭击共导致约3000人死亡1。
穆罕默德1965年出生于科威特，曾于1986年获得美国大学机械工程学位2。他于2003年在巴基斯坦被捕，2006年被转移至古巴关塔那摩湾监狱，在此被关押近20年12。他承认策划了2001年“9·11”袭击1。此案因酷刑供词、审判地点及情感争议等问题长期拖延2。法官表示，推迟开庭是为了留出更多时间处理法庭事务和证据提交争议1。此外，一项原本以避免死刑换取认罪的协议已于去年被推翻2。
A US military judge announced that the trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of the September 11 terrorist attacks, and his three co-defendants will commence on June 5, 2028 12. The US Air Force judge stated on Wednesday evening that the schedule was pushed back to allow additional time to manage court proceedings and resolve disputes regarding the submission of evidence 12. The high-profile case has suffered prolonged delays stemming from controversies over coerced confessions, the trial's location, and emotional disputes 2. Furthermore, a previous plea agreement that would have avoided the death penalty in exchange for guilty pleas was overturned last year 2.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who was born in Kuwait in 1965 and earned a mechanical engineering degree from an American university in 1986 2, was arrested in Pakistan in 2003 12 and transferred to the Guantanamo Bay detention camp in Cuba in 2006 12. He has been held at the facility for nearly two decades 2 and has confessed to planning the 2001 attacks 1, which claimed approximately 3,000 lives 1. Mohammed currently faces 2,977 charges, including murder, terrorism, hijacking, and attacking civilians 2. He will be tried alongside three co-conspirators identified as Walid bin Attash, Ali Abdul Aziz Ali, and Mustafa al-Hawsawi 1.
