BBC news now reporting the MOD are saying that the local commander on the ground negotiated to take our chaps into custody and they turned up to take them back, then some militants (read angry locals) turned up and tried to snatch them. In the confusion some poor unfortunate tankie knocked down a wall and let loose Basra's gangsters.....
And no I'm not a white supremecist or similar! But not overly happy about the thought of two of our guys being in an iraqi jail with an angry mob outside. If they've done wrong, fine, give them a fair trial!
