Yes Jim, on the face of it a bit of a dogs dinner caused by too many cooks with dollops of ego and axes to be ground but I would not care to criticise without knowing the whole true story which will never now be possible.

Ministry of Defence Press Office

(1/4) We believe that BBC Panorama’s episode about SAS operations in Afghanistan, scheduled for broadcast Tuesday 12 July 2022, jumps to unjustified conclusions from allegations that have already been fully investigated.
(2/4) We have provided a detailed and comprehensive statement to Panorama, highlighting unequivocally how two Service Police operations carried out extensive and independent investigation into allegations about the conduct of UK forces in Afghanistan.
(3/4) Neither investigation found sufficient evidence to prosecute. Insinuating otherwise is irresponsible, incorrect and puts our brave Armed Forces personnel at risk both in the field and reputationally.
(4/4) The Ministry of Defence of course stands open to considering any new evidence, there would be no obstruction.
We will always investigate allegations to the full, but our independent police and prosecutors can only act on the evidence before them.

[No idea what this is all about - we shall see?]

(1/2) We can confirm that the Royal Military Police have written to Panorama and other various media organisations who claim to have new evidence of crimes allegedly committed by British Armed Forces in Afghanistan.
(2/2) The Royal Military Police has requested this material is provided at the earliest opportunity so it can be reviewed.
