Inquiry into Iraqi teen allegedly drowned by British soldiers warns radio logs 'may have been lost'
A JUDGE investigating allegations that an Iraqi teenager drowned after being thrown into a river by British troops in 2003 said the “invaluable” radio logs of the incident are missing.
Sir George Newman told a directions hearing attended by the soldiers’ lawyers and – by video link – the father of Saeed Shabram, the dead teenager, that he still does not have access to the logs.
The hearing, which took place earlier this month, was interrupted by power cuts as Mr Shabram tried to observe from Iraq.
