A member of the Afghan parliament Shakila Hashimi who presented the report

to the Afghan House of Representatives said false statements were given to

the Afghan people by provincial governor Toryalai Weesa and US commander

saying that the shooting was carried out by a single US soldier.

She also added, the assassination was carried out by 2 groups of US soldiers

consisting of 15 to 20 soldiers and were accompanied by 2 helicopters.

Three Afghan National Army soldiers told the delegation that they were aware

when the US troops left their military base.

Shakila Hashimi said, Three types of weapons were used while killing the

civilians and the dresses of the women were taken out of their bodies.

The delegation urged the Afghan government and Washington that the UStroops should face a public trial.

According to reports US officials denied to hand over the US troops to Afghan

government and said no US soldier will face trial in Afghanistan based on the

agreement between the two nations.

In the meantime Afghan House of Representatives said the military

agreement which was signed by United States and NATO with the Afghan

government during the transitional period does not have any credibility and

was announced as abolished.
