This Just In From
The Independent Online Edition:
A senior British military police officer in Iraq involved in the investigation of alleged abuse of Iraqi civilians by soldiers has been found dead at a camp in Basra.
The body of Captain Ken Masters, the commander of 61 Section of the Special Investigations Branch (SIB), was found in his bed at the airport at the weekend. The death is being investigated by the SIB.
They are hinting at either suicide or homicide.
Defence sources said the death was "not due to hostile action and also not due to natural causes".
However, it is believed that investigators have not found a suicide note, nor firearms related to the incident. Capt Masters was not receiving any medical or psychological treatment.
This guy was in charge of investigating all charges of misconduct against British Troops in Iraq...(SPECULATION ALERT!) Sounds like he MIGHT have been "fragged". Or maybe the war just finally got to him.
