Mohammed was regarded as one of Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden’s senior lieutenants before his capture in Pakistan in March 2003.
Following his arrest, Mohammed was held for three years at secret detention facilities operated by the CIA.
He was later transferred to the US military detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in 2006, where he has remained in custody.
The planned June 2028 proceedings would bring the long-running case over the September 11 attacks to trial more than two decades after Mohammed was captured.
