Judge dismisses 911 attack confession
The U.S. military court has ruled that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's confessions—who is responsible for orchestrating the 9/11 attacks—are inadmissible in court due to their coercive extraction during interrogation. The judge's decision considers Mohammed's confessions, obtained while in secret detention and subjected to torture techniques including waterboarding, to be illegal and potentially grounds for dismissing his trial, although the prosecution has the option to appeal this ruling. Mohammed and three others are expected to be tried in Guantanamo in June 2028, amid ongoing controversy over the legitimacy of their trials, amidst a history of delays and legal objections.
