Kabul: Mock execution of child
Nov 5, 2006
Germany's army was hit by fresh allegations of misconduct on Saturday
when a newspaper reported peacekeeping soldiers in Afghanistan staged
the mock execution of a local child in 2002.
The article in the Berliner Morgenpost daily follows media reports that
German soldiers desecrated human skulls in Afghanistan in 2003 and, in a
separate case, used a car with a Nazi-era emblem, probably in Oman, at
an unspecified time.
The Morgenpost said it had interviewed a non-commissioned officer
serving in Afghanistan in 2002 who saw a German soldier putting a loaded
gun to a child's head on a patrol in Kabul.
"The boy was incredibly scared until he realised he wasn't really going
to be shot," the witness was quoted as saying in a preview of the
paper's Sunday edition.
The man posed with the boy and about four or five soldiers took
photographs of the scene, the man said.
Afterwards, the boy was given a dollar "as a reward", he said.
The paper suggested the episode was not an isolated event but did not
provide any further details, or photographs.
The Morgenpost said the Defence Ministry had urged the witness to get in
touch so they could investigate.
The Defence Ministry has launched a probe into the earlier incidents,
which came to light as the government was mapping out a new long-term
national security that foresees a bigger role for the Bundeswehr outside
of Germany.
On Wednesday, the army said it had suspended four soldiers for
involvement in the desecration of human skulls in Afghanistan, taking
the total number of suspensions to six.
The inquiry began after a German paper published photographs of soldiers
posing with human bones, including skulls.
More than 20 people have been investigated in conjunction with the
photos, most of them active soldiers.
The pictures caused outrage in Germany. Chancellor Angela Merkel
described the troops' behaviour as inexcusable and she vowed to punish
those involved.
