A former defence secretary who commissioned the Afghanistan Inquiry has said special forces must “live within the rule of law” after the probe heard claims they have a “golden pass… to get away with murder”.
Sir Ben Wallace, who was in post between July 2019 and August 2023, told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme it was “absolutely” essential the inquiry got definitive answers over whether murders took place in the war-torn nation between 2010 and 2013.
