上月,美国上诉法院驳回了穆罕默德及其两名共同被告通过认罪协议免除死刑的请求。
该上诉裁决推翻了一名军事法官和美国军事委员会上诉法院此前支持该认罪协议的决定。
该认罪协议于去年提出,并得到负责五角大楼关塔那摩战争法庭的官员批准,但去年8月遭到时任国防部长劳埃德·奥斯汀撤销,此前共和党议员对该协议提出批评。
根据施拉马长达11页的命令,穆罕默德及三名共同被告——瓦利德·穆罕默德·萨利赫·穆巴拉克·本·阿塔什、穆斯塔法·艾哈迈德·亚当·哈萨维以及阿里·阿卜杜勒·阿齐兹·阿里——将于2028年6月5日开始受审。

庭审将首先挑选完全由现役军人组成的陪审团,根据军事司法规则审理此案。
陪审团选定后的30个日历日内将开始开场陈述,随后控方将提交证据,之后被告方可提出无罪裁决动议。
该命令允许双方就这些动议进行辩论并互相反驳,并允许控方重启举证。辩方将在控方举证结束后的60个日历日内开始提交主要证据。
庭审将以量刑阶段收尾。
施拉马驳回了检方提出的2027年1月开启庭审的提议,称该时间留给“审前证据和合规动议的解决”时间过少。

穆罕默德仍是关塔那摩监狱最知名的在押人员,该监狱由时任美国总统乔治·W·布什于2002年设立,用于关押9·11袭击事件后抓获的外国武装嫌疑人。
他被指控策划劫持民航客机撞击纽约世界贸易中心和五角大楼的阴谋。9·11袭击造成近3000人死亡。

Summary
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and three co-defendants face charges over attacks that killed nearly 3,000
Appeals court last month blocked plea deals that would have removed capital punishment
Case has faced two decades of legal stalemate before Guantanamo Bay military commissions
Aug 26 (Reuters) – A U.S. Air Force judge on Wednesday ordered Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the accused mastermind of the September 11, 2001, attacks on the United States, and three co-defendants to go on trial before a military tribunal in June 2028.
The trial-scheduling order entered by Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Michael Schrama marked the latest milestone in a military prosecution beset by two decades of legal deadlock surrounding the four detainees held in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

Last month, a U.S. appeals court refused to allow Mohammed and two of his co-defendants to plead guilty under agreements that would have spared them the death penalty.
The appellate decision reversed decisions of a military judge and the U.S. Court of Military Commission Review in support of the plea deal.
The agreement had been offered last year and accepted by the official who oversees the Pentagon’s Guantanamo war court, only to be revoked last August by then-Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin amid criticism of the deal from Republican lawmakers.
Under Schrama’s 11-page order, Mohammed and three co-defendants — Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak bin ‘Atash, Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawi, and Ali Abdul Aziz Ali — will stand trial starting on June 5, 2028.

The proceedings open with selection of a panel consisting entirely of service members who will act as the jury to hear the case according to rules of military justice.
Opening statements will commence 30 calendar days after the panel is seated, followed by presentation of the prosecution’s evidence, after which the defendants may file motions for findings of not guilty.
The order gives both sides opportunities to argue those motions and rebut one another, and for prosecutors to reopen their case. The defense presents its principal evidence starting 60 calendar days after the prosecution concludes its case.
The trial ends with a sentencing phase.
Schrama rejected the prosecutors’ proposal to open the trial in January 2027, saying that would leave too little time for the “resolution of pretrial evidentiary and compliance motions.”

Mohammed remains the most well-known inmate at the Guantanamo detention facility, which was set up in 2002 by then-U.S. President George W. Bush to house foreign militant suspects following the September 11, 2001, attacks.
He is accused of orchestrating the plot to fly hijacked passenger jetliners into the World Trade Center in New York City and into the Pentagon. The 9/11 attacks killed nearly 3,000 people.
