2884th Edition: LawNewsIndex is a
UK based legal news & articles archive since 2011 focusing on Law, Lawyers,
Law Firms, Justice, Legislation, Litigation, Legal Ethics, Human Rights &
Social Justice issues.
Today's Video Focus: Operation Northmoor was set up in 2014 to examine allegations of
executions by British Special Forces.
It had linked dozens of suspicious killings on night raids.
One of those included three children and a 20-year-old man who were
killed by a British soldier in 2012 in the village of Loy Bagh in
Afghanistan.
British detectives have now told Panorama that Special Forces tried to
cover-up what happened to avoid being prosecuted for war crimes.
