Advisers to the US president are recommending that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed by tried in Military court rather than a civilian court. Sheikh Mohammed is the man accused of being behind the 911 attacks on US. The government seems to be reversing the decision of trying sheikh mohammed in civilian court.

Along with Sheikh Mohammed, 4 more were planned to be tried in civilian court. The attorney general, Eric Holder, was planning to conduct the trials in civilian court for all the 5 suspects. However, recommendations from presidential office is about to change this decision and the trial may shift to military tribunal court.

This decision of the senators is a backtracking from the issue on which Obama was going to change the perception of the world about US trials.
