This CID investigation concerns an allegation of an assault upon a detainee while at FOB Headhunter. The detainee alleges that after he was captured he was hooded, was struck about the head and body by fists and kicked. He also stated he was hit with a rifle butt; however, the soldier who hit him apologized due to the incident being an accident. The detainee agreed the rifle butt hit was in fact an accident and not a form of abuse or assault. The medical examiner and three (3) witnesses: one linguist; and two Headhunter guards, support the detainee’s allegations. However, the American soldiers related a different version of events. The soldiers state that the detainee was treated professionally and nobody abused him. The accused were found not guilty after a Court-Martial.
