Danish and foreign doctors have decided to let seriously wounded Afghan men die of wounds that coalition soldiers would have treated, according to Jyllands-Posten.
According the report, civilian and military Afghans, who are so badly wounded that it would have major consequences for their future civilian lives, are given pain killers and allowed to die.
Stopping treatment
“If an Afghan, for example, has serious internal bleeding or a broken back so that he would be paralysed from the neck down, we stop treatment,” says the head of Danish medical services at Kandahar Airfield, Dr. Christian Tollund.
