Obama does not rule out 9/11 trial in New York

US President Barack Obama said on Sunday he did not rule out trying September 11 suspect Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in New York City despite local opposition, but noted tough logistical questions involved.

“I have not ruled it out, but I think it is important for us to take into account the practical logistical issues involved,” Obama said in an interview.

“If you have got a city that is saying no, and a police department that is saying no, and a mayor that is saying no, that makes it difficult,” Obama said. But he added, “We have not ruled out anything.”
