9/11 terror suspects to be tried by military commission at Guantanamo Bay
Los Angeles Times | April 4, 2011 | 9:29 a.m.




Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, alleged mastermind of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and four accused co-conspirators will be tried by a military commission in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, instead of in a civilian court in New York, it was widely reported today.




U.S. Atty. Gen. Eric Holder is expected to make the formal announcement at a scheduled news conference later today.




The Obama administration had pushed to try Mohammed in a civilian court in New York. But last month, Obama lifted a freeze on new military trials at Guantanamo Bay, arguing that Congress was hurting national security by blocking his attempts to move some trials into civilian courts in the United States.
