Mohammed executed Pearl

The NY Times reports:

". . .American officials said Tuesday that Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, once Al Qaeda's top operational commander, personally executed Daniel Pearl, a Wall Street Journal reporter who was abducted in Pakistan early last year. Mr. Mohammed had previously been linked to a militant group believed to have committed the murder.

". . .Mohammed, who is being held at an undisclosed location as a suspected terrorist, might be charged with Mr. Pearl's murder at a military tribunal. However they said he was unlikely to be accused of the crime in an American criminal court because of the risk of divulging classified information."
