3 US 9/11 Attack Prisoners Agree To Confess Guilty At Guantanomo, Can Escape The Death Penalty

JAKARTA - The man who masterminded the September 11 attacks of the United States (US), Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, and his two accomplices, who were detained in US military prisons in Coal Bay, Cuba, have agreed to pleaded guilty.

As reported by Reuters on Thursday, August 1, a US official, speaking without a mention, said the negotiations with the perpetrators almost certainly involved a plea of guilt in exchange for the abolition of the death penalty.

The official said the terms of the agreement had not been disclosed to the public, but admitted that a life sentence application might occur.

Mohammed is the most famous convict at the detention facility in chromo Bay, founded in 2002 by then US citizens.

President George W. Bush has a suspect in foreign militants following the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States.

The occupants increased to a peak of around 800 inmates before starting to shrink. There are 30 inmates today.

Mohammed is believed to have masterminded plans to fly a hijacked commercial passenger plane to the World Trade Center in New York City and to the Pentagon.

The 9/11 attacks, he called them, killed nearly 3,000 people and plunged the United States into a war that will last for two decades in Afghanistan.

A 2014 Senate Intelligence Committee report on the use of waterboarding by the CIA and other "enhanced interrogation techniques" said Mohammed had received 183 waterboardings.

Defense deals were also reached by two other detainees: Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin 'Attash and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawi, according to a Pentagon statement.

The three men were initially charged together and charged on June 5, 2008, and then charged again together and charged for the second time on May 5, 2012, the Pentagon said.

Republican leader in the US Senate, Mitch McConnell, condemned the negotiations deal.

The only thing worse than negotiating with terrorists was negotiating with them after they were detained, McConnell said while accusing Democratic Party President Joe Biden's administration of being 'cut in dealing with terror.'
