UK Veterans Minister Johnny Mercer avoids jail, pledges not to reveal war crime sources' identities.
Former UK Veterans Minister Johnny Mercer avoided jail but pledged not to reveal the identities of officers who told him about alleged war crimes by British Special Forces in Afghanistan. Mercer provided "further information" to the Afghanistan Inquiry after being threatened with jail for not naming his sources, but stated it remains inappropriate to name those who confided in him without their consent. The inquiry's chairman decided not to take action against Mercer for the time being.
