Family Seeks Justice In Case Of Iraqi Slain By U.S.
Troops
By Jackie Spinner, Washington Post Staff Writer
BAGHDAD, June 14 -- The first thing they heard was the crash from the Humvee pushing through the metal courtyard gate. Then two shots were fired into the tile at the entryway before a team of U.S. soldiers and Iraqi military guards burst into the house where Sajid Kadhim was sleeping in the front room with his wife and
five children, his family recalled.
The soldiers rounded up other relatives scattered about the house and herded the women and children into a room with a colorful mural depicting a popular Iraqi play called "The Battle of Tuf." Sajid, a moderately well-known Baghdad actor, had played the role of the murdered brother of Imam Hussein, the grandson of the prophet Muhammad, in that play days earlier.
The power was out in Kamiliya, a suburb of Baghdad, in the early morning hours of May 17, when the soldiers came, the family said. So in the pitch black,-they
listened carefully. They heard the soldiers drag Sajid into the room where his
mother slept. "Oh, you coward," they heard Sajid yell. Then there were shots.
The soldiers left, taking with them a hooded man they said was Sajid. But the
family found the actor's body stuffed under some mats behind a refrigerator. He
was dead. The U.S. military confirmed Friday that an American soldier had shot
him.
When Saddam Hussein ruled Iraq, the family would hav7held the funeral, buried the dead and moved on with life. But Qasim Kadhim, Sajid's brother, said the Americans who toppled Hussein promised democracy and justice in a new Iraq. So he hired a lawyer, presented the case to a local neighborhood council that the U.S.-led occupation authority set up after the war and demanded that the military investigate. When days turned into weeks and he started to feel as if no one was listening, he went to the news media.
More than anything, Qasim wants to make sense of what this new justice was supposed to look like, he said in an interview. "All the criminals of the first regime were arrested," he said. "They didn't kill any of them. What happened to my brother was a crime. This was an execution of a civilian in his house.
"But who was the judge? Who defended the suspect? Where is the democracy? Where is the freedom that a person can be killed without a court, without an investigation?"
In a statement issued Friday that did not name Sajid Kadhim but that a military spokesman said referred to his case, the U.S. military said an informant led them to Sajid with information that he "bragged to his neighbors about murdering a 1st
Cavalry soldier at a checkpoint."
P:
"During the raid, the Iraqi attempted to grab the weapon of a U.S. soldier, who
shot and killed him," the statement said. "Until the investigation is complete, it
would be inappropriate to comment further."

As an occupying army, U.S. military personnel stationed in Iraq have had
immunity from Iraqi law since U.S.-led forces took over the country in April of last
year.

Family members, neighbors and fellow actors said Sajid was a peaceful, law-
abiding man who supported the U.S. presence in Iraq. They said he was a
religious moderate and a member of a local security league that spoke out
against the violence that has gripped this country in recent months.

Qasim said when he first went to the U.S. military to find out what had happened
to his brother, a captain apologized and told him the killing was an accident. The
captain asked Qasim to return with letters of support vouching for his brother,

Qasim said.
Qasim got letters from the Iraqi Theater Union, from local government leaders
and from sheiks. "Sajid was one of the notable figures of the Kamiliya

neighborhood," said a letter from the National Front of the Iraqi Tribes. "He used to stick to law and order. He used to hold several meetings to fight terrorism and chaos, helping people and telling them not to fight the coalition forces." A letter from Abdul Redha Sheik Muhsin Egeili, the chief of the Union of Notable Figures of the Zahraa, Ghadeer and Hussein neighborhoods, called Sajid "the dove of peace."
Qasim said he returned with the letters to Camp Falcon, the U.S. base closest to the neighborhood and the one responsible for security in this part of Baghdad.
This time the captain told Qasim that his brother had resisted arrest, he said.
e. C
The official report from the morgue said Sajid was shot five times, once in the
leg, once in the throat, once in the armpit and twice in the chest.
In the room where Sajid died, his brothers Haider and Jawad showed the holes in
the wall and floor where the bullets struck after passing through Sajid's body.

The electricity was out again, and the soft light from a broken window created
shadows on the walls as the brothers reenacted the scene to show how they had
been placed.

They had been tied up in the kitchen across a dim hallway, forced to kneel on the
tile, their foreheads pressed against the cold cement wall. They were there when
they heard the shots that killed their brother, Haider and Jawad said.

Haider said that when he heard the shots, he asked if his brother had been killed.
He said a soldier told them they were just checking the gun that Haider had
brought to them, the Kalashnikov assault rifle that Sajid kept upstairs to protect

his family. Haider said the soldier then struck him in the head with the butt of his
gun, leaving a wound that had to be stitched.
In a video of Sajid's funeral procession on May 20, Haider can be seen in front.

bandage around his head covers the wound that was visible as a scar last week.

Sajid's coffin, borrowed from a local mosque, is shown draped in the Iraqi flag,

U.S. soldiers had been to this neighborhood before,.the family and neighbors
said, but there had been few clashes between residents and the troops. "It was
very quiet," said Nasr Kadhim, another of Sajid's brothers, who lives next door. "When they used to come, they used to knock on the door, and they would take the family outside, search the house and then leave."

DODDOACID-004917
One of the things that bothers Qasim the most, he said, is the way in which his
brother died, killed at home with his wife and children in the next room.
"Saddam was a tyrant, but he did not commit such an inhumane crime," Qasim
said. "This happened in the quietness of night, which goes against our values
and the religious values of Moses and Jesus and Muhammad." •
Even if the Americans believed that his brother was guilty, he did not deserve to
die without having a chance to defend himself, Qasim said. This is the irony of
the new justice that he cannot comprehend.
"This crime happened after Abu Ghraib and after the apology of President Bush," Qasim said, referring to the scandal in which U.S. soldiers were accused of abusing Iraqi detainees in their custody. "We wish for the American press to publish the truth, for the American society to see this."
Sajid's eldest son, Ali, 12, stood by his uncle's side as he talked. The women of the household sat on rugs around the perimeter of the room, fanning themselves with pieces of cardboard. Sajid's widow, completely covered in black, including her face and hands, tried to comfort her youngest child, 1-year-old Abbas.
"He was the source of our living," All said of his father. "Why did they do that? Even Saddam didn't kill a person in front of his children."
All said he used to like the U.S. soldiers, that he felt safer when they were around.
"Now I see them, I feel that they're going to kill me," he said.

Shooting Death Angers Iraqi Family
US tactics in raid raise concerns
By Thanassis Cambanis, Globe Staff
BAGHDAD -- American soldiers stormed into Sajid Kadhum Bouri al-Bawi's house
three hours after midnight on May 17, breaking two doors and rousing the
dozen children who live there.

An hour later, family members recalled, the soldiers led a hooded man from
the house and told the family they were arresting Bawi. Only after the
soldiers left with what appeared to be a prisoner did Bawi's brother find
his bloodied body, shot five times and stuffed behind a refrigerator
underneath a pile of mattresses.

The US Army is investigating the shooting, and admits that Bawi was shot and
killed by an American when, according to the soldiers involved, he tried to
seize a soldier's weapon.

Bawi's slaying during the kind of routine night raid that is the military's
bread-and-butter counterinsurgency tactic raises questions about the control
and supervision of soldiers on those raids, and the reliability of the local
informants whose tips are often behind the arrest lists.

The events described by family members are chilling: They say Bawi was
killed in his mother's bedroom during an interrogation, while soldiers
banged on metal doors to dull the sound of the shots.

The soldiers then pretended they were detaining Bawi, according to several
members of the family who were present, parading another man in a dishdasha,

.00
or robe, through the darkened house to trick the family into thinking that
the head of the household was still alive.

Brigadier General Jeffery Hammond, the number two commander of the First Armored Cavalry Division, which patrols Baghdad, said the shooting was unlikely to have occurred as described by the family.
"We have too many lines of supervision on any operation we do," Hammond said. "It would be hard for me to believe that could happen."
In a terse statement released more than two weeks after Bawi's death, after
repeated visits by his relatives to military officers stationed near the
slum where his family lives, the military admitted the shooting and said it
had officially opened an investigation.

"According to a source, the Iraqi was an anti-Iraqi forces operative whom bragged to his neighbors about murdering a First Cavalry soldier at a checkpoint," the statement said.
Acting on the informant's tip, soldiers raided the house in Kamalaya, a
mostly Shi'ite slum south of the Sadr City section of Baghdad.

"It is reported that during the raid, the Iraqi attempted to grab the
weapon of a US soldier who shot and killed the subject," the statement said.

Through a spokesman, Hammond said it would be inappropriate to comment any further before the investigation was complete. It is not clear when that will be, nor has other information been disclosed regarding the identity of the unit or the names of the soldiers involved. In the past year, investigations into shootings by US troops have taken anywhere from a few weeks to several months.
It was not clear why the interrogation of Bawi took place in his house,
rather than at an American base after his arrest.

The shooting, as recalled by a half-dozen family members present the night of the raid, has left deep scars on the family. The Bawis live in a two-story home on a narrow dirt lane just off the main road in Kamalaya. On the night of the raid, Bawi, his wife, and five children were sleeping in the front room, the only one with an air conditioner.
According to the family, US soldiers, accompanied by a translator, a group of Iraqi Civil Defense Corps soldiers, and an informant -- hooded to mask his identity -- entered the house. They demanded to know where Bawi was, and the hulking man -- he was 6 feet 6 inches tall and weighed about 265 pounds -- immediately identified himself.
Bawi was taken to an empty bedroom just behind the living room, family members said. The soldiers roused the families of two other brothers, who live in the same house. In a standard practice, they held the three other men in the house in the kitchen, and separately kept the women and children in the living room, where they sat on the mattresses in front of a wall-sized mural depicting the battle of Karbala, the signal event in the
founding of Shi'ite Islam.
The soldiers found a machine gun in the upstairs bedroom belonging to Haidar
Bawi, one of Bawi's brothers.
"1 could only hear muffled sounds from the other room," said Wathiq Jawad
Kadhum, 27, a nephew who was held in the kitchen during the roughly 45
minutes that soldiers interrogated his uncle in the bedroom.
Kadhum, his brother Muthanah Kadhum, and his uncle Haidar Bawi were
handcuffed and kept on their knees at gunpoint, they said.
Several times, the translator and an American officer came to the kitchen
and addressed the three men. "They said, Sajid is in the resistance, isn't
he?" Wathiq Kadhum said. "They asked me, what do you do?"
About half an hour into the interrogation, Wathiq Kadhum and Muthanah Kadhum said they heard Bawi shout, "Oh, you bastard!" Then, they said, a series of gunshots rang out. A soldier kicked the metal door to the washroom, the family theorized, perhaps to mask the noise of the bullets.
The translator and officer came to the kitchen and told the relatives they had test-fired the confiscated weapon. Wathiq Kadhum said he demanded to know what happened.
"The translator told rne, shut up, don't ask questions," he said. Someone -­in the darkened kitchen, he could not tell who -- then hit him in the face with the butt of a gun, he said. His forehead bears a seven-stitch scar, and videotapes from his uncle's funeral show a bandage around his forehead with a streak of blood.
"Anyone who moves, we'll kill him," Muthanah Kadhum said the translator told him.
Shortly before 4 a.m., the soldiers left, taking with them a hooded man wearing one of Bawi's white robes, family members said.
The family regrouped in the yard.
"It was ordinary. We thought they had taken Sajid and maybe they would return him within a month," said his brother Nasser Bawi, 36, who lives. in the next-door house, which is separated from Bawi's by a 3-foot-wide alley. He had waited in front of the house during the raid with another brother, Qasim Bawi, 40, and with a group of neighbors.
"We were sure he was just arrested and would come back."
One neighbor brought wire cutters to remove the plastic cuffs binding the hands of the three men.
DODDOACID-004924

When the power came back on, family members and neighbors filtered into the house to survey the mess and damage left from the soldiers' search --cabinet doors askew, doors broken, bedding and clothes thrown to the floor.
That's when Hathima Hakim, Nasser Bawi's mother, saw a pair of feet
protruding from under a mattress.
"It was as if the ceiling had opened up and dropped him," she said. She
screamed: "It's Sajid!"
Nasser Bawi came running, thinking that American soldiers had brought his
brother home.
"I found him soaked in blood," he said, breaking into sobs as he stood next
to the same refrigerator that had partially hidden Bawi's body.
.4=21
The coroner's report from the Baghdad Morgue, dated May 29, said Bawi had five bullet wounds: two in the torso, near the heart; two on his left side; and one in his right thigh.
Qasim Bawi represented the family in several visits to a nearby US base, the first one a few days after the funeral.
At an officer's request, he brought letters -- from neighborhood and tribal councils, from an Islamic charity, and from the actors' union -- attesting to Bawi's good character.
According to his brothers, Bawi, like the rest of the family, welcomed the United States as liberators. "When Saddam was captured, he hired a band for the neighborhood," Qasim Bawi said.
Family snapshots show Wathiq Kadhum, the brother with the forehead scar, frolicking in a waterfall last summer, his arm around a female US soldier.
Now the family lives in fear. The children said they can't sleep. Knocks at the door make the men jump.
Ali, at l 1 the eldest of Bawi's children, said he has a recurrent nightmare in which he cannot find his family. "I don't go near the Americans anymore, because I'm afraid they will kill me," Ali said.
Bawi's relatives say they want an apology from the Army, a trial for the person who shot him, and only then, financial compensation.
Qasim and Nasser Bawi think the soldiers were tricked by an Iraqi informant who had a personal gripe against their slain brother, a well-known figure in the neighborhood who ran a business renting tents and chairs for funerals.
They do not have a guess as to who the informant was, but they refer to him as "Hassan," because one of the neighbors contends he heard an American soldier say, "No, Hassan," to the informant as they left the house.
Less than a month before his death, Bawi starred as Abbas, a founding figure of Shi'ite Islam, in a Sadr City production.
His brothers scoffed at the allegation that Bawi had killed an American soldier, or that he fought the soldiers who were interrogating him during the raid. "He was so fat, he couldn't run," Nasser Bawi said. "How could he be in the resistance?"
"C..

(CID.", (E-mai l); OM.
With school over for the summer and their mother in mourning, Sajid Bawi's
five children stay in the house all day. The women cry ritualistically,
especially when visitors come. They refuse to clean a spot of blood on the
wall where they say Bawi was shot, or replace a shattered windowpane, or
move the refrigerator into its proper place.
"They think they have killed one man," Qasim Bawi said. "They have killed
the whole family."
