This document is a Department of Defense (DOD) email Memo discussing the shooting death, and subsequent release of the body of Ali Jodek Shakur, an Iraqi national, who was shot by Coalition Forces on September 21 2005, when he ran into a traffic control point in Kirkuk, Iraq. He was shot three (3) times in the head but was transported to the 332 AFTH (Balad, Iraq) for medical treatment. He was then transferred to Abu Ghraib Prison, where he was issued ISN#:178790. It was determined that Mr. Shakur was incorrectly processed as a detainee and incorrectly issued a detainee ISN. His body was released to his son on October 10, 2005. This memo indicates that the release of the body violated the MNF-1 Detainee Death Policy
