NewzA U.S. Air Force judge has ordered Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the accused mastermind of the September 11, 2001, attacks, along with three co-defendants, to stand trial before a military tribunal at Guantanamo Bay in June 2028.
The trial-scheduling order was entered on Wednesday by Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Mich. In setting the 2028 date, the judge rejected a prosecution proposal to open the proceedings in January 2027, concluding that the earlier timeline would provide insufficient time for the resolution of pretrial evidentiary and compliance motions.
