9/11 PLOTTERS: WE ARE GUILTY

THREE men accused of plotting the 9/11 attacks, including the boss said to have masterminded the atrocity, are set to dodge the death penalty by agreeing to plead guilty.

Al-Qaeda kingpin Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and two accomplices, Walid bin Attash and Mustafa al-Hawsawi, are expected to be handed life sentences.

Relatives of victims have condemned the plea deal.

Terry Strada, of the 9/11 Families United group, said: "They just took away the justice I was expecting a trial and the punishment."
