Execution of Afghan insurgent ‘shocking’
Brigadier Bill Dunham, Deputy Commandant General Royal Marines, spoke out after a commando was convicted of murdering the seriously wounded prisoner in Helmand Province two years ago. The serviceman, known only as Marine A, shot him at close range in the centre of his chest.
As the man convulsed on the ground, Marine A told him: “There you are. Shuffle off this mortal coil, you c***. It’s nothing you wouldn’t do to us.”
