Soldier dies after accident in Kabul

Published Tuesday 9th April 2002

It is with very deep regret that the Ministry of Defence has to confirm that Private Darren John George from the Royal Anglian Regiment, serving with the International Security Assistance Force in Kabul, has died after a tragic incident during a patrol.

The incident occurred during a security patrol in the Afghan capital, and was the subject of a full inquiry to establish the exact circumstances. However, hostile action was not a factor.

Our most sincere sympathies are with his family at this very difficult time.
