| A court martial has been set for a British soldier accused of selling fake photographs of British troops abusing Iraqi prisoners to the Mirror. Pvt. Stuart MacKenzie, who served part-time in the Territorial Army, will stand trial in April before a military court in England for allegedly helping produce the photos, the Guardian reported Tuesday. One image, printed on the Mirror's front page under the headline "Vile," purported to show a soldier urinating on a hooded and bound prisoner. Another depicted a prisoner being hit with a rifle. MacKenzie had a preliminary hearing in October but the case was delayed for procedural purposes, officials said. The publication of the photos led to the dismissal of Mirror editor Piers Morgan after the Army accused him of endangering the lives of troops in Iraq who could be targeted for revenge. |
