Re: Updated SOPs for Post Tnmsfer Follow-Up Measures for Detainees Transferred by the

Canadian Forces in Afghanistan

SECRET CEO

Sit, :

~ are newly lWiscd Standatd Opcnlting Procedures fOJ POBt-Trao.sfel- Follow-Up MeasumI For·Detainees Transferred by the Canadian Forces in Mgbanistan, dated July 20, 2007. This memo higbliglits the changes between this version and its most recent predecessor version, dated May 14, 2007.

1. or the substantive changes, perhaps dJo IIIOCIt jmportIDt is the deletion in IV. 8 of tile

Id'tnmce to a DF AlT assessment "of the appropriatmcss of 1bc contUmed 1nmSfCI of dctaiDDes from the Canadiau Forces to Afghan authorities or to specific Afghan authoritiesJlOC&1ions." Similarly VIll. 19 no longer contains a reference to the provision to the Canadian Forces of a DF AIT "assessment of the appropriateness of continued transfers to the facility where the alleged abuse took place", However, ANNEX C, Mission Reporting Template on Periodic Follow-up Yisitt to Assess Condition of Canadian- Transferred Detainees. paragraph 3, DOW mqWrea the Iq)Olte:r to proWJc a brief dc8criptioD "of compliaDce with the terms of the Ca:aada-Atghanistan detainee traDafer Ammgements •• on Reports filed responding to ANNEX C will be provided to the Commander mAfg and the JFf -Afg Detainee Officer, as well as to other DF AIT addressees. .

2. Other substantive changes appear in ANNEX B, Diplomatic Contingency Plan in the Event of

Credible Allegations of MistreatmOlt of Detainees Following their Transfer from CF to Afghan authorities. 00Dc ate '!he requircme:Ids in the bmcr puagraph 2. buJlets 2 and 3, "to verify the accuracy of the accusation. through inspection of the facility ..... , and to "checl: with allies 011 tbtir expc:rie.uce widt the facility alleged to be torturiDg". In their place are requ.jremcntB to iDfonn the ICRe aDd AlHRC of the allegatious. and to instruct HOMIKabul to undertake an of&ia1 demuche., requireDx:nta which 'M:RI fODnedy in peragraph3. 1IDdcr .. Actions, Immediate Measures".

3. Jmnaining substantive changes are more minor, and appear to reflect situational reality not fully I!PPreciated in the earlier version. For example, V. Step 2, bullet 2 now requires the JFf-Mg Detainee Officer to ensure that the detainee is not only provided with a copy of the Canadian

Ammgement, but is also "infonncd of its content". Another addition, in Vl. 11. directs that the detainees to be interviewed on site visits be chosen on a random basis.

4 Other DOD-substantive changes are editorial (e.g., "JTF-Afg Detention Officer". instead of

"Canadian Forces Detention Liason Officer"), or in format (e.g., .An1Iex A, Questions for Detaining Authority and for Detainees, is DOW a form that the officer conducting the visit can tiD out directly instead of a mere list of directions and questions.)

5. The documents attached have the new or amended text highlighted in grey. and notes

indicating deletions in bold and grey highlight I have refrained from unnecessary arbricide by not including the former ten. Should you, or any of the other CC'd addresses which to compare the two versions. the earlier will be provided upon request.

6. I would be pleased to address this issue with a single slide summarizing the changes at your

ANNEXB

Diplomatic Contingency Plan In the event of credible allegatJons of mistreatment of detainees following their transfer from CF to Afghan authorities

This document is intended to identify potential diplomatic actions that can be undertaken should credible allegations of detainee abuse by Afghan authorities following their transfer by the Canadian Forces be made. Note: this does not preclude continued reminders toAfghan authorities at all levels regarding our expectations as to their treatment of detainees. It articulates triggers for such diplomatic actions, upon verification, and Canada's legal obligations in the event the allegations ere SUbstantiated.

1. TrIgger:

• The AIHRC, or a third party (NGOs, relatives, media, or otherwise}, make credible allegations that detainees transferred by CF to Afghan authorities have been potentially abused following their transfer.

• Canadian offICials directly uncover the abuse of prisoners (and inadvertently detainees) while visiting Afghan prison facilities.

• Canadian officials, either in Ottawa or in the field (KAF, PRT, Kabul), are made aware by credible contacts (lOs, allies, etc.) of specific cases or pattem of abuse of transferred detainees by Afghan authorities.

• A pattern of abuse by Afghan authorities potentially involVIng CF transfers is uncovered by the Government of Afghanistan and made aware to its international

partners. .

2.

VerifICation:

Immediate measures:

• OFAlT, In consultation with relevant stakeholders, to Instruct KPRT or KABUL to encourage that the AIHRC investigate the incident, depending on where it occurs, if

they have not already done so. .

• DFAlT, In consultation with relevant stakeholders, instruct HOM/Kabul, or Goe officials in the field, to verify the accuracy of the accusation through inspectlon of facilities (or through Afghan authorities) and by seeking access to the individuals In question (if transferred by the CF), if possible.

• Check ~th other allies on their experience with the facility alleged to be torturing.

Additional measure:

• DFAIT convene the Afghan Ambassador to Canada to delineate Canadian expectations of the Afghan Government in responding to these allegations. DFAIT to request an Investigation by pursued by appropriate Afghan authorities and to offer assistance in the Investigation, If required.

3. Actions: Pending verification, and depending upon the nature of the allegations (long-term pattern of abuse or specific incident), there are a series of short-termfrnmediate diplomatfc measures Canada can take, each Incrementally more severe In accordance with the circumstance.

20100311

413

OF AlT. in consulta1ion with relevant stakeholders, arrange a phone call between MINA and his Afghan counterpart.

DND to arrange a similar call for MND.

Issue a press release at the appropriate level (e.g. MINA, MND, PM) condemning the abuse and expressing Canada's concern over the incident, while emphasising that Afghan authorities have the primary responsibility for handling detainees captured on their sovereign territory and within their jurisdiction; such a release should also emphasise the contributions Canada is making towards capacity building In the corrections and justice sectors.

OFAIT to recommend to PCO that the PM consider a call to President Karzai.

Diplomatic Contingency n upon discovering detainee abuse by Afghan t .orities

Immediate Measures:

• Goe offICials in the field visit the facility in question which holds the detainees that have been transferred by the CF.

• DFAIT, in consultation with relevant stakeholders, instruct HOMlKabul to undertake an official demarcfle upon verification to express strong Canadian concerns, demand better treatment, and to insist that those who perpetrated the acts are brought to justice in accordance with Afghan law, in accordance with Afghanistan's Intematlonallegal obligations.

• HOM/Kabul to notify the leRe and the AIHRC of the allegationS In the spirit of enabling both organizations to fulfill their mandate, and to follow-up separately to address potential concerns with the conditions of detention.

Additional measures:





• MINA to consider temporarily recalling our Ambassador, pending a recommendation from DFAIT;n consultation with PCO and concerned departments.

4. Assistance: Consider longer·tenn options to further enhance Afghan monitoring and tracking of detainees and capacity-building efforts.

NOS SITE VISIT 2007..Q4·25

The Director of the Corrections Component and Gavin Buchan of DFAIT departed the KPRT at 16:00 on patrol to NDS under Force Protection escort.

The purpose of the patrol was for esc to endeavour to review the Registration Book for prisoners, to meet the Director of the Detention Centre and to tour the Detention Cell Block to assess compliance with International Standards. This patrol had been planned for some time however became more urgent due to recent Canadian media commentary.

The_of NOS initially met us. DFAIT queried

whe~re of mistreatment at the NOS facility in

Kandahar, and underlined the seriousness with which Canada is taking this issue .• said he was aware of the issue because of conversations with Genera ran and that he was prepared to give us full and open access.

Director of NOS ABDUL QA YUM and Chief nvesncator

some minutes later and reference was made to our ng with the

. _and the~f NOS. CSC explained their mandate to the Director and the fact that they have been working with Sarpoza Prison and its staff and to a lesser degree the ANP HQ Detention Centre and would like to offer similar assistance to NOS. esc commented that when in the other facilities,

. ese typically would ask to look at the prison register, inspect the cells, take pictures of the facility and assess the premises to Human Rights standards. esc asked if they would be extended the same courtesy and NOS indicated we could have complete access to their faCility.

According to NOS staff a doctor visits once a week but the prisoners can also be taken to an outside hospital. They receive 3 meals a days and staff and officers eat the same food as the prisoners. They receive fresh air exercise and showers on alternate days (those In the communal cell go one day, those in individual cells the next). All inmates were wearing chains around their ankles, which were secured by padlocks.

JeRC does visit

Family visits ta can messages

When asked as to how their families are notified of their incarceration we were told it was either through the ICRC, neighbours or word of mouth. If a family member comes to the gate and enquires about an inmate NOS will confirm if he or she is there. Lawyers are allowed to visit but they never do.

Staff complement for the detention centre or $100-120 US a allowed in the cells.

We were told that inmates are typically held here for 1 month before trial and once they completed the court process they would go to Sarpoza. They did state that they could request extensions from the court. This is contrary to our NOS interview of April 22nd when esc was told they were only at NOS for the investigation process and then would go to court from Sarpoza. Two inmates indicated they had been there for approximately 2 ~ months.

The NOS Indicated that they would have no objections to our asking questions of the prisoners. They remained present throughout our interaction with the prisoners.

When asked who had been picked up or detained by Canadian Forces of the 19, seven raised their hands and two insisted. Then some qualified that they were foreigners who spoke English .... told us the last transfer from Canadian Forces was 15 days ago and th'8T'dUe'"to issues of overcrowding some end up

Typically during the first week of detention and investigation prisoners are not allowed to see their family, however if there are inquiries the NOS will confirm to the family that they are being held.

After this we conducted a de-brief with Director QA YUM. While most of the standards are consistent with the other sites viewed. esc indicated that the shackling of inmates was inappropriate. They stated it would only be for one more month until the new building is ready. and they are able to put all prisoners into small cells rather than relying on a communal cell. Having said that. the new facility is far from being ready and CSC would like to pursue the matter further. NDS also clarified for us that leRC notified families when someone was incarcerated at their site. When asked about prisoner treatment we did indicate that two inmates had stated they had been tortured. While we saw no immediate

The Director indicated that Engineer NOORZAI was welcome to visit NOS and would be accorded full cooperation. He also indicated that the esc Director would always be welcome on the site based on her experience with Canadian prisons.

Consider this emait approval from the CEFCOM PM and tech chain.

Now, according to J4 CEFCOM staff, you have to go back through your J3 and J4 for support. If they approve/concur to send it to their counterpart here, they will be looking to see if It can be sourced from theatre allocations (bonus if it can). You will have to take a serious look at which posns should have this weapon aSSigned to them. Reality andopstock may dictate your numbers.

All,

Please excuse my delay in response - I was away from the office yesterday.

I had done some research on exactly this topic last summerlfall, Just prior to my annual conference in Edmonton and in fact, had a presentation to the assembled masses made on this topic.

Bac!sground:

When the SMG (for those of you who may not remember it, this was the collapsible machine gun that fird two rounds a minute) was replaced by our new weapons systems, the MP

Branch was asked if it wanted the Contrary to the popular myth that we were

supposed to get the_along with the Crmn trade (who had also carried the SMG as its pers

wpn), the MP Branch decided that it wanted the As a result, when the-..as

purchased, it wasn't scaled to indude issue to the MP trade. Realise of course, thartlils pertains to the Army only - the other ECS' had there own decisions to make - but it was apparently a Branch decision not to go the.route. DGLEM in Hull (in particular the armaments shop) has this COrrespondence on file if anyone wants to review it. As a result, there Is no ex~le of issue for MP to have the. and as a result the default on all TO&Ewillbe_

the needs currently being encountered, they do not necessarily requIre a permanent adjustment overall.

There are two issues at hand; (1) a request for TF Afghanistan M P Coy, and (2) what the MP Branch needs or wants. The two need not necessarily be connected.

I have spoken to MP who have returned from TF Afghanistan and who are familiar with the ut

Recommendations:

(1) Give these soldiers what they need I want. Have CEFCOM PM sign off as Branch tech authority, recommending in favour of the submission. Have the lOR then staffed appropriately through G4 in theatre to CEFCOM and CANOSCOM for approval and action.

(2) Have DPM RM review all existing documentation held by DGLEM, and make recommendations for permanent MP scale of issue adjustment as necessary.

(3) .Have applicable ECS reps review their individual needs and forward conclusions and recommendations to DPM RM to assist him with his deciSion.

3. I have taken the liberty to give this e-mail a broader distribution as there a lot of people who are much smarter on, and/or more background in, this issue and feel we could benefit from their input. Further. their insight may help provide a framework for whatever action is nee to institute this doctrinally or help in understanding this issue.

DPMRM,

1. Sir, att is a letter from the current CO JTF Afg MP. Coy with regard to a

TO&E change and supporting the reqr for the MP being issued _ I fully support this initiative but feel that it is too limited in application and it is time for us to deal with it at the strategic level. ' The problem is that this is a constant struggle and, even if we win this battle, we shall undoubtedly have to fight rearguard actions to keep them and, in any event, every time MP deploy, we have to fight the same battle justifying the requirement for _for our people. For example, we had to beg. borrow and exprop~when I went into theatre against a great deal of resistance and, even after we were able to borrow them (temporarily), there was a great deal of pressure brought to bear by a host of units to have them taken away from the MP and given to them.

I believe that action should be taken to permanently identify the I believe that, for the reasons identified by Bernie. this is not a "nice to have" but essential given the nature of MP ops in deployed TOOs. Of note, it is my understanding, in discussions with .

the MWO who was for a number of years that

lam not certain what action needs to be taken but feel this must be ingrained in doctrine and identified as a strategic initiative to avoid us having to continually reo-visit this issue for every successive op (i.e, on an ad hoc basis as is currently the case) or, at the v~!n doing so it can be used as justification in arguing for the requirement_'-or deployed MP.

4. Action Addressees. Please feel free to weigh in and provide whatever

input/insight you feel might help us in shaping the discussion, understanding the issue. or. better yet, taking any and all action nee to affect this initiative.

Authority

1. This Theatre Standing Order (TSO) replaces all previous iterations of TSO 321.

Purpose

2. The purpose of this TSO is to promulgate Joint Task Force Afghanistan (JTF-

Afg) policy and procedures relating to the detention of Afghan nationals or ather persons by Canadian Forces (CF) personnel during operations in Afghanistan.

StrategiC Intent

3. Canada will support the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan

across three lines of operation: security, governance and development. During the conduct of these operations, it may be necessary to take and temporarily hold detainees

for eventual transfer to Afghan authorities. V

authorities or their release.

5. All detainees will be treated to the standard required for prisoners of war (PW) as

defined by the Third Geneva Convention, the highest standard of treatment established under international law. Persons detained by CF personnel will, at all times, be treated humanely. Any unlawful act or omission causing death or injury is prohibited. No detainee may be subjected to physical mutilation or to medical or scientific experiments of any kind. Detainees must at all times be protected against acts of violence or intimidation and against insults and public curiosity. Acts of reprisal against detainees are prohibited.

Commanders Intent

6. In the normal course of operations, JTF-Afg personnel may be required to

temporarily detain Afghan nationals or other individuals for reasons of self-d~fence, force protection or for other legitimate reasons related to the accomplishment of their mission. This necessitates procedures for the safe and humane handling of any individual detained in the course of operations. This TSO promulgates my direction to ensure that any person temporarily detained by JTF-Afg is treated properly; that the detention process is swift and thorough; and that a comprehensive record is maintained of this process that will inform future operations and facilitate follow-on actions by the Government of Canada in relation to those individuals detained. Under the Third Geneva Convention, the treatment of detainees is a national responsibility and it is of the utmost importance that CF personnel deal with detainees in a manner that reflects credit on Canada at all times.

Definitions

7. In this Order:

a. Screening. Screening is the process of preliminary assessment conducted by those Canadian personnel in immediate contact with individuals in the tactical area of operations (AO). This process is designed to rapidly determine if any individuals on the site of a contact (either of opportunity or as a result of a deliberate operation), are known or reasonably believed to be members of any of the following categories:

(1) individuals who are approved targets;

(2) Aa, Taliban, HiG or other lAG leaders;
