The release of the Iraq Inquiry has been delayed for at least six months due to the British government's refusal to allow investigators access to documents. The inquiry, under Lord John Chilcot, was formerly expected to publish its report on how Britain went to war in Iraq and the aftermath of the invasion by the end of the year, yet a statement posted on the inquiry's website said that would not be possible even by mid-2012. "The Inquiry has advised the Government that it will need until at least summer 2012 to produce a draft report which will do justice to the issues involved,” the statement said. “As well as drafting the report, the Inquiry will need to negotiate the declassification of a significant volume of currently classified material with the government, to enable this to be quoted in, or published alongside, the Inquiry's report,” it added.

The inquirers also said they would need the government's cooperation to complete the report “in a satisfactory and timely manner.” CHILCOT INQUIRY : War Crime Tony Blair & George Bush.

UK probe: Search for truth or PR stunt? - Inside Story. An inquiry into the death of an Iraqi civilian who died while in British custody in Iraq, has found that he was the victim of "unjustified and brutal violence". Baha Mousa died in British army custody in Basra in 2003. He sustained 93 injuries. Sir William Gage, the chairman of the inquiry, condemned "corporate failure" at the Ministry of Defence in reference to the use of banned interrogation methods in Iraq. This is the biggest British inquiry into professional standards in the British Army since the Bloody Sunday investigation into the killings of unarmed Catholics in Northern Ireland 30 years ago. The defence ministry says it will carefully consider any recommendations from the inquiry.

Reports however suggest that while individual soldiers and failures in the chain of command in the army will be criticised, British troops will be cleared of charges of systemic abuse following the inquiry.
