192: Smoke Gets In Your Eyes

Afghanistan War, Heroin Use Among Afghan Police

A BBC interview with a British serviceman, Carl Klaus, who lost a leg to an anti-tank mine in Afghanistan, reveals claims that the Afghan National Police are frequently under the influence of heroin. The soldier criticizes the lack of adequate armored vehicles, such as the Mastiff, which might have prevented his injuries. Media outlets are criticized for glossing over the revelation of widespread drug use among local security forces.
