SYDNEY (AFP) – A rogue Afghan soldier suspected of killing an Australian lance corporal has been shot dead during a US-led special forces operation, Defence Minister Stephen Smith said Monday.
The Afghan National Army (ANA) soldier Shafied Ullah had been on the run since he allegedly shot 25-year-old Lance Corporal Andrew Jones four times on May 30 as they shared guard duties at a patrol base in the Chora Valley.
"The knowledge that Shafied Ullah has been killed and no longer poses a risk in Afghanistan... will of course be a terrible reminder to the family of Lance Corporal Jones' tragic death," Smith told reporters.
Smith said that Ullah had been tracked since fleeing the base, and Australians had had some input into the operation which took place in the Afghan soldier's home province of Khost overnight.
While it would have been good for Ullah to face court justice, "all of the evidence and advice" pointed to him having killed Jones," he added.
"We are proceeding conclusively on the basis that the murderer of Lance Corporal Jones has himself been killed," Smith said.
Chief of the Defence Force Angus Houston said the operation had intended to capture Ullah but he was killed when he presented "a direct threat" to the coalition soldiers who found him.
"I understand from reporting received this morning that Shafied Ullah drew a pistol when confronted by the Coalition Special Forces team and was shot and killed," Air Chief Marshal Houston said.
He added that a man believed to be Ullah's brother was detained and was being questioned by the US military.
Australia has some 1,550 troops in Afghanistan, many of them working to train Afghan National Army soldiers working in southern Afghanistan. So far 27 Australian soldiers have died during the conflict.
