 Military judge suppresses Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s FBI confession in 9/11 case A military judge has excluded a confession that alleged Sept. 11 attacks mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed gave to FBI agents nearly 20 years ago, ruling that the statements were not made voluntarily. The decision is a setback for the U.S. government's long-running effort to prosecute Mohammed, who is accused of helping develop the plot to hijack planes and crash them into the World Trade Center and Pentagon.

The United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division has said it has the power to sit over the case instituted by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar.

Atiku is asking the court to compel Chicago State University (CSU) to produce the academic records of President Bola Tinubu, Political Economist reports.

According to court documents, the court established that it has jurisdiction over the matter under US law, which authorises any "interested person" to request that a US District Court order the discovery of documents and testimony for use in a foreign proceeding from persons who "reside or are found" within its District."

It said it would not hesitate to grant the prayers of Atiku.
