Jamal Naseer

Jamal Nasser (c. 1985 – March 16, 2003) was an Afghan soldier who died in United States' custody on March 16, 2003.

In 2004, eighteen months after his death, when his death in custody was brought to the attention of American headquarters, his death was attributed to a kidney infection. Later, an investigation determined that the account of death by natural causes was a fiction, the result of collusion among the GIs in the Special Forces unit whose custody he was in when he died. After a two-year investigation no one was held responsible for his death. However reprimands were filed in the dossiers of several GIs for the failure to report his death.

According to Senator Patrick Leahy:

Craig Pyes, one of the two LA Times reporters who broke the story, described the process of researching the story for the Neiman Report, the publication of the Neiman Foundation for Journalism. Pyes wrote that he and his colleague, Kevin Sack, decided to conduct a parallel investigation to the Army's official investigation. He wrote they interviewed more than 1000 individuals.
