Quran Burning Investigations Completed

Two investigations into the burning of Qurans by U.S. military personnel are complete, according to an International Security Assistance Force official.

Military personnel at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan burned religious materials, including some Qurans, in February.

A joint investigation conducted by U.S. and Afghan authorities has been completed for several weeks, the official said. It is being reviewed by Gen. John Allen, the ISAF commander. A second investigation, conducted by the U.S. Army as a fact-finding review, is also complete. It is in the final stages of a legal review by the Army and is expected to be forwarded to Allen, the official said.
