Admiral Sir Tony Radakin said it is ‘right’ that unlawful activity is investigated.
Chief of Defence Staff Admiral Sir Tony Radakin said the inquiry should not take away from the ‘many thousands’ of Britons who served in Afghanistan
The defence chief said it is “right that allegations of unlawful activity are thoroughly investigated”, and said the Ministry of Defence’s involvement is about “justifying our reputation”. Concluding his evidence to the inquiry on Tuesday, Admiral Sir Tony said: “I’d like to take this opportunity to reiterate the Ministry of Defence’s support for this inquiry.
The defence chief continued: “We’re also very clear that this involves justifying our reputation, and to maintain public confidence now and for the future – and it’s right that allegations of unlawful activity are thoroughly investigated, and it’s right that we look at the MoD’s response to consider whether further lessons need to be learned.
“I’d like to take this opportunity to thank our servicemen and women for their understanding and their co-operation, and I’m grateful to them for their support to this inquiry.”
