LONDON, July 19 (AFP) - Britain has compensated Iraqis for 122 incidents, including 11 deaths, that have happened in British-occupied southern Iraq, Britain's Armed Forces Minister Adam Ingram said on Monday.
Compensations were granted over a wide range of cases including one death in detention, three deaths from gunshot wounds, one person who died in a bomb attack on a British army vehicle, and six deaths in road traffic accidents, Ingram told parliament in a written statement.
Thirty other cases involved injuries including: three gunshot wounds, 14 road traffic accidents, 11 injuries sustained during arrest, and two injured during property searches.
The remaining payouts came after 24 incidents of property damage and 57 vehicles damaged in road accidents.
Britain's defence ministry would not give details of the amounts of compensation involved, nor the circumstances which led to the incidents.
