UK troopers to face 11 more 'trials' over Iraq [genocide] deaths
The UK High Court has ruled that 11 separate probes should be held into British troops' conduct in Iraq, media reports say. The Ministry of Defense (MoD) ordered the inquest-style hearings into the deaths of 11 Iraqi civilians during the British presence in Iraq after the March 2003 US-led invasion of the country, the Daily Telegraph disclosed. The scale of investigation into UK troops' atrocities in Iraq is disclosed a day after another trooper was jailed for a minimum of 10 years for indiscriminate killing of an injured Afghan.
