Wrongful death - Iraq

Aug 2007 No one knows how many civilians have been killed accidentally by US troops in Iraq. This moving report examines several 'wrongful deaths' in Kirkuk. Karzan's 75 year old uncle was shot 86 times after he failed to slow down at a checkpoint. Local police chief, General Qadir, believe soldiers often panic and shoot to kill, instead of; "firing more warning shots". Relatives left behind feel particular bitter that no-one is held accountable for these mistaken deaths. "The Americans have done nothing and my family's lives have been ruined", laments one woman.
