INVESTIGATIVE SUMMARY: "This is a Camp Stronghold Freedom Investigation." 46- '7' This investi ation was initiated upon notification from SSG A Co, 519th Military Intelligence Battalion, Bagram Air Field, Afghanistan, APO AE 09354 (BAP), that he was suspicious of the shooting death of Mr SAYARI by a Special Forces team. Investi ation establiSned probable cause to believe SFC/11¦111111-47(...-6/14‘5--3",5Aile-s4gArssc cpTimmommio and SSGIOMMIMMcommitted the offenses „of Murder and Conspiracy when they conspired to lure Mr SAYARI _7'.f,,i1.4"4-5-into an ambush to murder him. SFCIMMEMMO and SSAIMMIIMMOIshot and killed Mr SAYARI upon detaining him. Investigation established probable cause to believe CPT committed the offenses of Dereliction of Duty and Obstruction of Justice when he violated the unit standard operatin rocedures (SOP) for detaining captives and instructed SFC -(formerly SSG) to not forward certain incriminating photographs SAYARI's body, and to destroy them. SFCMIMMIMMIand sEcimmummigcommitted the offense of Dereliction of Duty when they violated SOP for detaining captives. SSGMEMMOOdid not commit the-W-.5,411-c— offense of Dereliction of Duty as he'was not directly involved in handling a detained captive. Investigation established probable cause to believe CW2 spaligi committed the offense of Accessory After the Fact when he took the weapon that Mr. SAYARI allegedly had prior to the shooting and lost it.

I was able to gather intelligence arid identify the individual as Mohammed SAYARI. I was also able to gather a description and what kind of vehicle he drove. On 28 Aug 02, he arrived at our Fire Base and asked if we wanted to rent a truck. I told him we did not want to rent one at present, but asked if he could come back later on. I informed my team, and the plan was to see if SAYARI would follow the patrol, and if so, to stop him and ask him why he was following our patrols. Just after SAYARI arrived, which was about 1030Z, we launched two government vehicles in the rouse that they were going out on..9.0.

I am not sure what happened to SAYARI's weapon. We contacted Counter-Intelligence, and along with them and the Afghan Military Forces Commander, I went to the scene. Upon my arrival, I saw SAYARI lying on the ground with what appeared to be a head wound. I cannot remember what exact position his body was in. The Cl examined the scene, took some photos and notes. I coordinated with the AMF Commander, who made arraignments to have SAY.' 14 body tumed over to his family. When I spoke with the AMF Commander„ e s ated that SAYARI was a thug in the area and had been extorting money from the local people.

We were informed prior to coming into the country, that any photos we had of Afghani's that were either blindfolded, captured, shot, or dead, were to be reviewed for intelligence purposes. After the photos were reviewed and whatever information gathered from them, that we were not allowed to hold on to the photos. Q: Why were you not allowed to hold on to them? A: It was not meant to cover-up any situations we were involved in, it was meant to insure that nothing was construed from the photos. And also that no photos were to end up being sent by email, or end up e2,ewspaper or as azine. '3744 say that SAYARI's hands were over his head? Q: Did SSG_r SFC_r sa A: No they did not. They said that while they were shooting him, his body turned and then fell on the ground. Q: Prior to this incident what contact did you have with SAYARI? A: Prior to our arrival to Lwara, SAYARI had set up a checkpoint near where the Fire Base was. He used the checkpoint in order to extort money from the local people. SAYARI was considered a sub-elder. Many of the eiders did not like him, but respected him because he always had some security with him. When we arrived, we essentially knocked down his checkpoint, and he tried to get any jobs on the installation, which we refused. I had spoken with him several times, whenever he tried to get a job on post. On the day of the incident, he was trying to rent us a truck. Q: Describe how you came to know that it was SAYARI that was following your patrols? A: We had heard information that somebody was following some of our patrols, but we did not know who it was. A few weeks prior to the incident, ¦loWtold me that SAYARI was the one that was following our patrols, but that he currently was not in the area. Up until the morning of the incident, none of my unit members knew about SAYARJ. On the 28` h, SAYARJ came up to our compound, at which time I informed my team. Q: Did you ever find out why SAYARI was following your patrols? A:_ ad informed me that it was to inform personnel, whether it be Taliban or al- Quaeda. that we were coming.

I arrived approximately 1400 hrs local and was orienting myself to the fire base. Approximately 1530 hrs, I believe.1,4;":5- came to the tent I was in and said that he needed the CI team to respond to a shooting incident that had just.d. I p. believe the first thing said was by.s to the effect of "not again.A.y elf, and.e tthe team that just arrived, and.and.name unknown [LNU]) the team we were replacingsliglisampWiltigs the shooting scene. We were led by, I believe,.'location that was approximately a quarter of a mile south of the FB. On arrival, I noticed several US Special Forces (USSF) soldiers set in a defensive perimeter securing the scene. There were approximately 2 or 3 GMV's and a gray 4 door Toyota Hilux. One of the GMV's was located close to a small hill that was on the inside turn of the river to the north of the body and was at a blind spot that couldn't be seen from the FB or from either direction of the river bed. One GMV, T believe, was on the east side of the river close to the vertical embankment and had approximately 2 USSF standing near the front of it. A Hilux was on the opposite side of the river bed and was oriented south with 1 USSR soldier standing next to it and it was approximately 25 to 30 feet south of the body. The other GMV was parked on the same side of the river bed as the Hilux and was 10 or 15 feet north and to the left of the Hilux. The vehicle we traveled in was initially parked to the north of the body, but was moved in order to block the view of the locals traveling on the road. The river, also used as a road by the local people, was approximately 10 meters wide with a vertical embankment on the east side and a steep embankment on the west side. The part of the river in which we were located formed a bend to the west, and on the west or north west side of the river was a gradual slope where silt and sand had been deposited that eventually rose to a hill. On this slope, approximately 10 to 15 feet from the west edge of the river, was a body laying prone with the head turned to the right. His feet were closest to the river, and his head was closest to the steep embankment. His right hand and arm were near his head and in his right hand, clenched in a fist, were prayer beads. His left arm was at his side and his legs were generally straight. It was obvious that the man was dead. There was massive trauma to his head that appeared to be the exit wound caused by a bullet. Covering his right forearm and on the ground on both sides of his forearm. was material that included brain matter, skull fragments, and hair. All of which came from the head wound. This splatter pattern, I felt, was consistent with the person laying in the prone and the bullet path coming from an angle that was slightly behind and from the left side of the body. Additionally, I noticed approximately 5 small bullet Exhibit:.INITIALS.h76-7/) b$/ PAGE 1 OF 6 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY cx4,17)-fr I b DOD-DOACID000807 47cg 6 .Y.0114-02-C1D369-23525-5H1A STATEMENT OF TAKEN AT Camp Stronghold Freedom, APO AE 093 DATED 09 Oct 2002 CONTINUED. entry holes on the back of the shirt. I did not notice any blood or body fluid surrounding the the holes on the shirt and I believed these holes to be bullet entry holes. I took several pictures with my digital camera of the body as I had found it. These pictures included close up pictures of the head wound with the matter on the forearm and the prayer beads in the clenched fist, wide area pictures, and situational pictures of the body in relation to the surroundings. I then raised the shirt of the man and took a picture of the holes in his back. I noticed approximately 5 holes in the victims back, one of which had a small trickle of blood coming from it. The other holes were clean. I became nervous at this time realizing that the man had been shot in the back and felt uncomfortable taking pictures, because I did not know any of the USSF soldiers at the scene and felt they would question my actions of taking pictures of the man's back. I felt all of the. ores that needed to be taken had been, so I instructed.-41,,,,ikv d' arch the body. When. finished his search,.Viturned the body over, roing the body to the left.

Wellrloack, got another detainee and the person started giving up all kinds of information. Although I never heard derogatory information come from members of ODA 343 about each other, I did hear commentq,42T,other persons at the fire base to the effect, "WellIMMOrrgaia—he wanted to get one before he left." I believe this meant that he wanted to kill a local Afghan before he left Afghanistan to return to the US. The attitudes and actions that I observed while at the fire base described ODA 343 as a group of USSF out operating without any oversight. Incidents also included a rocket attack around the 21st of Sep, 2002 that had 4 rockets impact in and around the fire base around 1200z hours. The previous day a cache of captured mortar rounds and 12.7mm ammunition was destroyed by USSF at the range co-located with the FB using high explosives. Approximately 0400z hours, I heard another explosion, but it sounded different from a rocket attack. The explosion was more muffled and didn't have the distinct metallic crack associated with the rockets. I went to the roof of the TOC and noticed a gathering of local people at a house approximately 150 meters to the northeast of the FB. I asked one of the local hire interpreters what was going on and he told me that a child was playing with some UXO and it detonated. This incident I later read on the intelligence summary, was reported that the child was injured in the rocket attack and not by the UXO that the child was playing with. Generally missions and actions of ODA 343 were kept to the team members and when the missions were conducted, rarely were outside elements used. ODA 343 and ODA 341 were described to me as completely different in nature. Additionally ODA 343 was described to me as the door kicker types and ODA 341 was described as the civil affairs xpw.k. Approximately 24 Aug 02, I was approached by told that JAG was flying in and needed to collect sworn was statements from team meegg_and also wanted pictures that I took.

Do you know how well, or if, SAYARI spoke English? 67C3 4.5 A. No.. Q. Did CPT.instruct or ask you to delete those pictures? A. He asked me to delete the pictures. Q. Did he say why he made that request? A. No, but it was obvious to me that he didn't want the pictures to exist. That was his way of insuring they didn't exist. Q. Can you tell the difference between an AMF soldier and a local Afghan? A. To me they're the same. They're dressed the same. Q. Did anyone from ODA 343 threaten you over this incident or imply a threat to you? A. Not directly; however, their actions led me to believe that they would not threaten me, they would just kill me. Q. What made you believe they were capable of killing a US soldier over this incident? A. Special Forces have the training, equipment and motivation to protect themselves from anyone that threatens their circle. Q. What do you think were the circumstances of SAYARI's death? A. I believe SAYARI to have been executed. Q. Why do you think they executed SAYARI? A. How do you say just for the fun of it? I think that members of the team felt that the Afghan life was less than human. Q. What indicators did they exhibit that led you to believe they looked at Afghans as less than human? A. I was told by members of ODA 343 that after the incident villagers came to the gate and said that SAYARI was a thorn in the villagers' side and that his life was of no value. No one came to claim his body and they had a general feeling of disgust toward the Afghans working on base. I think they had almost alienated themselves from the AMF and that they failed to train and work with the AMF. Q. What memlisq;f-ODA 343 said this? A. wi that people came to the gate saying, "Thank you for killing SAYARI", but their actions separating themselves from the AMF was what led me to make the other comments Q. Who were the 8 members for ODA 343 that were at the scene when you arrived? A. I thought the whole team was out there, since I had only been on the ground about 90 minutes at that time.

Yes. I am seriously concerned with my life with these guys. I feel that they will have nothing to lose with their training and experience and access to specialized weapons.

What is your MOS and job title? A. 97B and my title is Counter Intelligence Agent. Q. When did you arrive in Afghanistan when you were deployed? A. We left Fort Bragg on 11 Mar and got there on the 13th of March. Q. Where were you assigned while there? A. I was actually assigned in Bagram and Lwara Fire base. Q. Describe your duties while you were deployed in Afghanistan. A. Force Protection, interviews of detainees, interviews of = locals and sources, debriefing teams after missions, and that's pretty much it. Q. Describe in detail what occurred on 28 Aug 02 and your involvement in any incidents that occurred that day involving yourself, any teams, and/or local nationals. A. I got to Bagram on the 17th of August and I had transported "PUC" which was a Person Under Control or Custody. I am not sure what it stands for exactly and have heard other people call it different things. I spent the rest of the time in Bagram waiting for a flight back to Lwara. On 28 Aug 02, I woke up that morning and got all my. things together as I had been told early that morning that I was getting a flight out and going back to Lwara. About 0900, 28 Aug, We boarded the helicoptors, they were chinhooks, and the first helicoptor had a problem so we had to wait to see if they could fix it. We boarded another helicoptor and then they fixed the problem on the first one so we went back to that one. It was around 1200, when we finally took off. We made a few stops at a few other fire bases to drop off some supplies. We got into Lwara around 1600. That's local time. We unloaded our stuff off the helicoptor and transported it up to the fir se. About 15 minutes later, I was informed along with S sthat there was a shooting down in the river bed. Chief told us that there had been a shooting and he.to go down there and document the scene. Chief ell us told us it was the guy who had been following the teams leaving on the missions. I didn't know what he was talking about at that time due to me being out of the loop for the past week and a half and in Bagram. We grabbed our equipment. We took our LBE, weapon, note pads, camera, and that's it.. of intoilii i."3 rruck that we were It was me, SF SPC and SSG or SFC.(who were our. replacements). We all went to the scene together. It was about one and a half KM's to the scene from the fire base. I drove the truck to the scene. It was southwest of the fire base and in the river bed, which was also the roads. The roads were in the riverbeds. When we arrived, which was around 1645, and got out of the vehicle, we saw the guy laying on the ground. The team guys were pulling security. It was ODA 343 that was there. we pulled up and there were two of their HUMVV's there. One w in front of the suspect's vehicle and one was behind it.

The HUMMV in the front had a 50 cal mounted on it I believe. There were no doors on the vehicle. The one to the rear had a Mark 19 mounted on it and it also did not have any doors. They were both painted a tan/sand desert color. The suspect vehicle was a dark colored Toyota Hylux pick up truck. It was a bed type pickup and didn't have any type of camper on it and it had four doors. That's the way the trucks are over there, they have four door. When I arrived, the doors to the truck were all closed, all four of them. I only saw the dead guy on the ground. He was laying on his stomach and I think, but not 100% sure, but I think his right arm was under his body and his left arm was above his head. He was wearing local type garb. It was like a long shirt and pants with a vest over the shirt. I think he was wearing a pancake type hat. His head was tilted to the right hand side and his eyes were open. His mouth was slightly opened and there was blood coming from his mouth. He had a couple heads wounds and there were some wounds on his back, but we had to lift his shirt up to see them. We ha 444 asked them what 7 .a - and he told me that the Afghanistan Military Force (AMF checkpoint had stopped him first and there were three people in the vehicle. They said the guy had passed through the AMF checkpoint. Then our ODA team chased the vehicle down and stopped the vehicle.

I didn't specifics y ask them how many shots they each fired. It was more along the lines of "Did you fire?" and when they said yes, then we knew who had fired. when we were policing up the scene, after everything was done, we found nine or ten casings. These were M-4 shell cases, 5.56. After we had talked with them, that was when we went over and examined the body. I noticed one head shot. There was a possible entrance and an exit wound. The entrance wound was on his forehead about centered and slightly to the right and was about an inch to an inch and a half about the suspect's right eye. The exit wound was about the center crown area of the back of his head. There were several wounds in the chest area and also several wounds in his back. We ha.

We did roll him , ilk over and look at the front of his body also, That was how we saw all of his wounds. There were no wounds on his hands. We did fingerprints on him and didn't notice any wounds on hism.5-)A4es" hands. I never saw a weapon. I was told by Chief MINMOMMIlhat they had brought the weapon to the weapons storage area and put it with all the other weapons. I never saw the weapon at the scene or afterwards. They said they brought the weapon up after they could not get any radio corns with the base and Chief drove up to the base himself with the weapon. The chief came back with the weapon and had stored it and that's when he told me that there had been a shooting. After we photographed the body, we placed the body in the back of the pick up truck (the hylux) and turned the body over to the AMF commander so that he could have the family notified and the body buried as soon as possible. In Islamic law, the body has to be buried before sunset.. The AMF commander took it from there. The AMF Commander took the truck with the body in the back and took them away. We returned to the base to begin the debriefing. The new guys that had came in assumed control of. ' vestigation. I didn't do any of the debriefing. Chief.wrote up a statement. I am not for sure if he was down there when it happened or not. He sent the statement up to his higher ups and gave the statement to the guys who had assumed the investigation.

In the end of Apr 02, I left for Afghanistan on deployment with various elements of the 3rd SFG. My MOS is 97E (Interrogator), and I deployed with 3rd SFG in this capacity. Once in country, I deployed in theater. From 1 May 02 to 7 Jul 02, I was deployed with C Company, 2nd Battalion, 3rd SFG, at various locations throughout southern Afghanistan. About 8 Jul 02, I was deployed to Lwara Fire Base with ODA's 343 and 341. Lwara Fire Base was located on the eastern border of Afghanistan and Pakistan, between the Paktia and Paktika provinces. There was also an infantry platoon at the fire base with us. My job was to support the ODA's at the fire base by supplementing their patrol strength and provide MI support. About the 28 Aug 02, I was inside the Fire Base perimeter, e ODA 343 executive officer, Chief Warrant Officer came inside the base stating that there was a shooting an that he needed support out at the location_ It was that same day that two new Counter I.ce (CI) Agents arrived to the Fire Base, so myself, SPC , and the two new CI guys jumped in a truck and headed out to the location of ODA 343. They were located not far beyond the perimeter of the base, in a deep river bed that wa.as the main roadway for th.(Team Captain), SFC ,54.. When we arrived, CPT. '(Team Sergeant), 7.(Team Medic) were there. we all called SSG.oc" as he was MOS 18D. An empty local truck was parked on the right side of the river bed. What appeared to be a local national was lying dead on the ground about 15 feet behind where the truck was parked. I'm pretty sure he was lying on his back with his arms at his side. The first thing I noticed about him was that a significant portion of the top of his skull was missing from an obvious gun shot wound. After we searched him, we discovered three or four bullet holes in his thorax area, also obvious gun shot wounds. I could not tell whether the wounds to the front side of his thorax were entrance or exit wounds. Based on information pr :. _s_by the Warrant Officer at the fire base and CPT once a-1 the scene, the local natio7a1 was Mohammed SAYARI. He was suspected of gathering intelligence against the fire base, but his credentials were unknown, or the entity he may have been providing the intelligence to. As I said, this information was provided to me through second and third hind knowledge of the situation. I do know that HUMINT and SI+3INT up until that incident indicated enemy surveillance was keeping close tabs on the movements and operations of the fire base. Just a few days prior to this incident, a local national tribal elder came to the fire base and provided information that SAYARI was in fact collecting intelligence against the fire base. It xhibit: .INITIALS11111,7c-y).PAGE 1 OF . FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 152 15 DOD-DOACID000834 1015-02-CID023- STATEMENT OF 1111.1.111111/MOM h/(``ii 46-V 0.3 7 ZS -4./1736. TAKEN AT Fort Bragg, NC 28310-5000 DATED 01 Oct 2002 CONTINUED. was at this time that a picture started to form that SAYARI was most likely conducting these operations. For instance, several local national boys would routinely congregate near the front gate to the fire base; however, after the tribal elder informed us specifically of his suspicions about SAYARI, we identified that the one local national boy who was always watching the front gate was SAYARI's 10 year old son. All this information was evaluated and it was decided that ODA 343 would attempt to detain SAYARI in an effort to determine his intentions. So, on 28 Aug 02, ODA 343 set out from the fire base and set up a vehicle control point in the river bed. I know ODA 343 was looking for SAYARI, but I don't know if that was their sole purpose for the vehicle control point. Vehicle control points were fairly common as a routine team mission. SAYARI's vehicle was stopped by ODA 343 at their control point that day. Again, I witnessed none of this. Upon being stopped, SAYARI and several riders in the back of his Toyota truck got out. The other riders were sent off, as apparently ODA 343 was not looking for any of theM. The team searched his truck and discovered his AK-47 rifle, which was then leaned against the truck while the ODA 343 members were talking to SAYARI. At some point during this process, SAYARI was informed that he was going to be transported to Bagram for furth. _stioning, after which he remain . 1 and waited for SFC.t'o turn his back. Once SFC did this, SAYARI went or his weapon leaning against his truck and was able to retrieve his rifle., .YARI then raised ' ' a threatening manner tow d FC "-softer which SSG shot him (SAYARI). SSG -apparently shot SAYARI once in the abdomen; however, he I) was standing and retaining his AK-47. SFC and SSG then shot SAYARI several more times.4. t know whcimmsrriF SAYARI where on his body after SSG initial shot. When we got to the scene, I helped searchSA 's body and witnessed the new CI guys collect SAYARI's hair and skull fragments for forensic purposes. This was our standard operating procedure for any shooting. I don't recall who took the digital pictures at the scene. I do remember that afterward there was some issue as we did not have the capability to download those pictures, but I don't know what the final outcome of that was. About four or five days later, the sealed box marked for "CID" was released to MP's that were flying to Bagram. That's the last I knew of the box. It was shortly after this, on 14 Sep 02, that I left Afghanistan enroute back to the states. Q: Did you make the remark, "not again," after first learning of the shooting incident? A: T do not recall making that specific.. But I may have made some remark to the effect that SF.had been again involved in a shooting since he had shot t e only other person shot from our fire base. Q: What was that other incident? A: The other incident happened before my arrival. Q: Do you know any details? A: A local national was surveilling US binoculars. He was approached by SFC.'SFC 111111101 and SPC 731‘,1-. , along with some other US an A g an personnel.

Q: Was there an investigation into this incident? A: I don't believe so. I never heard of anything else about it, not could I think of any reason as to why there would have been. Q: What was your knowledge of ODA 343 prior to the incident with SAYARI? A: I worked with them on a daily basis for almost two months. I would characterize them as aggressive and effective. They were more aggressive than any other unit I have worked with, but I never saw them do anything inappropriate to a combat situation. Q: Did any of the SFG members say anything about the shooting, other than what was described above? A: I heard no other comments from any other witnesses to the shooting. Q: At this time, do you suspect that any aspect of this incident, as you know it or have heard, was illegal in any manner? A: No, I don't and didn't think it was anything other than a righteous shooting. I know myself and others made a few remarks initially after the incident in question as to what occurred; however, this was merely "monday morning quarterbacking," and completed unsubstantiated and unfounded. Q: Do you know who the local personnel were that were in the back of SAYARI's truck upon .ng stop ed? A: I was told by either SFC.' or SSG.that they were local civilians, and at least one "AMF" (Afghan Military Force) member, who they would have recognized from training him at the base. Q: Do you know the AMF member's name? A: No. Q: Were there any attempts by members of the fire base to cover this up? A: None whatsoever. To the contrary, ODA 343 immediately sent for a local tribal leader and expedited the search of SAYARI's person in order to turn over nis corpse and possessions to his tribe as soon as possible. Q: Is there anything else you wish to add to this statement? A: Yes. After the shooting, there was a marked decline in SIGINT activity and no further attacks on the base. This indicates that whatever enemy activity was going on was directly related somehow to SAYARI. Also, several local national workers expressed thanks to us for killing him. I believe this is due to his (SAYARI's) reputation as a murderer and thug amongst the members of his own tribe. This was unusual in a society in which tribal ties'are far more important than legal or national loyalties. Q: Anything else you want to add? A: No.///END OF STATEMENT/// PAGE . .xhibit :_ INITIALS 1111116 7t• 16 AZ -S/.3 OF FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY 154 r_-_-,y-t,,h,71 7 5- DOD-DOACID000836 tier 1015-02 -CID023 -STATEMENT OF IMIEINISIBIMIIM ii 74-411 f D /9 --o z.`1-2 z TAKEN AT Fort Bragg, NC 2 8 3 1 - 5 0 0 0 DATED 01 Oct 2002 CONTINUED AFFIDAVIT 472:-Y/06d1 HAVE READ OR HAVE HAD READ TO ME THIS STATEMENT WHICH BEGINS ON PAGE 1 AND ENDS ON PAGE 04.

The Al Qaeda and Taliban are the enemies of M_r SAYARI, and all of the tribes in the Lwara/Schkin area of Afghanistan. If the Pepelayu tribe found any of the Al Qaeda or Taliban they would arres or kill them.
