Gurkha does his job and is going to be punished for it.

I say this story is an utter lie.

Don't you think it rather odd that there's been no other mention of this story in the press. No Muslim or human rights organisations calling foul, nothing mentioned in Parliament....

The Daily Mail is not a liberal newspaper, it's a sensationalist rag for the middle-classes in South East England to get worked up over the "injustices" of the world. They frequently misrepresent the facts and even lie, then let the story quietly drop.

It's a paper that is frequently quoted on American sites like this to "show" what Britain is like, with the inevitable outcome of Brit bashing carried out by many.

Well I guess the mystery of the head that told tales is come close to being solved.
 
I congratulate that Gurkha on some creative problem solving. Sure beats carrying the whole body all the way back to base camp...
 
A GURKHA under investigation for beheading a Taliban gunman has been allowed back on normal duty.

The Nepalese soldier faced court martial after he returned to base with the enemy fighter’s head in a bag and presented it to senior officers.

He had decapitated the insurgent with his kukri machete, the traditional Gurkha weapon, during fierce fighting on the Afghan front line.


Royal Military Police investigated whether the gruesome killing in July last year was a war crime.

But they have ruled the Gurkha was fighting for his life.

He took the head to base in a misunderstanding over the need for DNA evidence.

A military source said: “It happened during the heat of battle. Thankfully, he has been returned to normal duties having had a question mark hanging over his future for quite some time. This particular Gurkha is a good soldier and has a good record.”

It is thought he did not have time to reload his rifle as his victim confronted him during a battle in Helmand.

Hi Yorkshire boy,
I' m not sure if Mirror paper is another deviant of Daily's. I'm just very glad the hero's back to his squat to do more justice.

And please, not "Kukri machete"! It's AYO GORKHALI!
 
Amen JayG.All is fair in war.I guess it's ok for muslim extremists to decapitate people as standard practice though,right? Good work soldier!
