Al-Sweady Inquiry Due: UK's £25m Army abuse probe to issue report

Al-Sweady inquiry: UK's £25m Army abuse probe to issue report - Home News - UK - The Independent 
It has examined claims that 20 or more Iraqis were unlawfully killed while in custody, bodies were mutilated and detainees were ill-treated following a fierce firefight known as the Battle of Danny Boy in May 2004.
After almost 300 witnesses in central London gave evidence during a year of public hearings, lawyers representing the alleged victims' families admitted that there was no evidence of unlawful killing.
But they stood by claims regarding the alleged mistreatment of prisoners at Camp Abu Naji (CAN) near Majar-al-Kabir in southern Iraq and later at Shaibah Logistics Base.
