Bienvenidos a Democracy Now! democracynow.org, el informativo de guerra y paz, soy Amy Goodman.
Details are slowly emerging on the allegations against U.S. special operations forces that
prompted Afghan President Hamid Karzai to order their removal from Wardak province.
Afghan officials say they have received complaints for the past three months that U.S. forces
have arrested nine people who have since disappeared.
One Afghan villager said her son was taken away and later found dead.
My son was taken, and his body was dropped under a bridge in the river.
One of his fingers was cut off. He was beaten very badly. His
body was swollen from torture, and his throat was slit.
Why is the government not listening to our voices?
Why are they not stopping the Americans from doing such things? While I
wanted to stand up to talk with the Americans, they have pulled me back and hit me in my
chest with the butt of a gun. I still feel pain here since I’ve been beaten. I cannot
breathe. You still can see the marks of the beating on my chest.
The Afghan government is expected to form a commission of inquiry with the U.S.-led
NATO occupation force to investigate the allegations.
On Monday, a NATO spokesperson said no evidence of wrongdoing has emerged so far.
We take all allegations of misconduct seriously
and go to great lengths to determine the facts surrounding them.
Over the past few weeks, there have been various allegations of special forces conducting themselves
in an unprofessional manner in Maidan Wardak.
So far, we could not find evidence that would support these allegations.
