Germany has told the U.S. it will withhold evidence against Sept. 11 conspiracy defendant Zacarias Moussaoui unless it receives assurances that the material won’t be used to secure a death penalty, Germany’s justice minister said.

Investigators suspect that Moussaoui, who awaits trial in Virginia on charges of conspiracy to commit terrorism and murder federal employees, was training to pilot one of the airliners hijacked for the attacks when he was arrested.
