Afghan Massacre: Convoy of Death
Thousands of Afghan prisoners were killed while travelling in sealed containers
on their way from Konduz to a prison at Sheberghan. The bodies of the dead and
some who survived were then buried in a mass grave at nearby Dasht Leile. US
special forces were closely involved and in charge at the time. Were they
involved in a war crime? The Pentagon denies the events. The eyewitnesses tell
what happened.
Watch brief excerpts from a 50 minute documentary, AFGHAN MASSACRE Convoy of
Death by Scottish journalist Jamie Doran and Afghan journalist Najibullah
Quraishi. Hear Doran talk about the massacre and its implications and why
there's been no investigation into suspected war crimes. To obtain the film,
