Ben Roberts-Smith’s SAS comrade saw him kick an unarmed, handcuffed Afghan man off a cliff before ordering subordinate soldiers to drag the severely injured man under a tree where he was shot dead by another soldier, the federal court has heard.
“I saw the individual’s face strike a large rock and sustain a serious injury. It knocked out a number of his teeth including his front teeth,” the soldier told the court. “I was in shock.”
