Officer ordered booby trap - but charges droppedTOBY LONGBOTTOM & PHIL JOHNSON/S Revelations from The Valley include allegations about booby-trapping charges laid against two officers. Retired Lieutenant General Rhys Jones says charges against the officer were dropped "because he gave the order in the heat of the moment". Stuff Circuit has learned that two officers were charged over the case, although both of them escaped punishment. A second, more senior officer overruled the soldier. - Stuff Circuit
