GUANTANAMO BAY NAVAL BASE, Cuba - Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks, is expected to face a hearing here within three months, a military official said Wednesday.

Mohammed and 13 other "high-value" detainees recently transferred from CIA custody to this isolated U.S. Navy base in southeast Cuba will face Combatant Status Review Tribunals, said Navy Capt. Phil Waddingham, director of the Office for the Administrative Review of the Detention of Enemy Combatants.

The 14 new detainees will be invited to appear at the hearings, which will determine whether they are combatants, Waddingham told reporters here. If Mohammed appears, it would mark the first time he has been seen since he was captured more than three years ago.
