Baha Mousa inquiry: 'Very serious breach of discipline' by UK soldiers
An Iraqi man died after suffering an "appalling episode of serious gratuitous violence" in a "very serious breach of discipline" by UK soldiers, a year-long inquiry has found.
Its chairman, Sir William Gage, blamed "corporate failure" at the Ministry of Defence for the use of banned interrogation methods in Iraq.
Baha Mousa died with 93 injuries in British army custody in Basra in 2003.
