In this courtroom sketch approved by military officials and obtained by Reuters on February 29, 2012, Maryland-educated Majid Khan, 32, enters a guilty plea before Army Col. James Pohl, the chief military commissions judge, at the U.S. Navy base at Guantanamo, Cuba. After nearly nine years in U.S. custody, Pakistani native Khan appeared in public for the first time at a top-security courtroom on the Guantanamo Bay U.S. naval base in Cuba. He plead guilty to all five charges against him, including murder and attempted murder, in a deal that spares him from a potential life sentence in exchange for helping prosecute other prisoners.
