Philip Young is a citizen of South Africa who was convicted of murder in Afghanistan.〔 〕〔 〕〔 〕 According to Young he was working in Afghanistan for Anham, a subcontractor of the Drug Enforcement Administration.〔 Anham was a logistics supplier for the company. Young was Anham's deputy project manager for Afghanistan. He acknowledges shooting an Afghan on 1 October 2009—a former employee, but describes the killing as self-defense. Young described disgruntled Abdul Ghafar, his former subordinate, opening fire on his vehicle, and that he had merely returned fire.〔 The South African newspaper ''The Independent'' quoted Thinus Coetzee, of Amnesty International. He called Young's conviction ''"deeply flawed"'' Young described being held in a communal cell, with fifteen other men, during his pre-trial detention.〔 He described being held with Taliban and al Qaeda suspects, and had been called upon to fight for his life with fellow prisoners. Following his conviction he was held in a special counter-narotics prison and in the Pul-e-Charkihi prison.〔 Conditions improved there. Anham colleagues were allowed to bring him a birthday cake, although he wasn't allowed to eat any of it. His release followed a pardon decree from Afghan President Hamid Karzai.〔 ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Philip Young (murderer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
