US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin has revoked plea deals with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of the September 11 attacks, and two accomplices held at Guantanamo Bay. The Pentagon had announced earlier in the week that plea deals were in place, reportedly involving guilty pleas in exchange for removing the death penalty. On Friday, Austin relieved Susan Escallier, who had authority over the Pentagon's Guantanamo war court, of her role in the case and assumed the responsibility himself. In a memo, Austin stated, "Effective immediately, in the exercise of my authority, I hereby withdraw from the three pre-trial agreements." 9/11 Terror Attack: Mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Two Other Defendants Agreed To Plead Guilty, Says Pentagon.
