Key 9/11 suspect confesses guilt
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed
Mohammed said he planned the 9/11 attacks, the transcript said
The alleged mastermind of the 9/11 attacks has confessed to his role in them, and 29 other terror plots around the world, the Pentagon says.
He also said he had planned attacks on Big Ben and Heathrow airport in London.
He also claimed to be behind plots to assassinate the late Pope John Paul II and former US President Bill Clinton.
The closed-door hearings were held over the weekend. It is the first time Mohammed has faced a court since his capture in March 2003 in Pakistan.
The US hearings have been widely criticised by lawyers and human rights groups as sham tribunals, with no chance for the defendants to get a fair trial.
