Description
Ben Roberts-Smith, Australia's most decorated living soldier, has been released on bail and spotted on the Gold Coast after being charged with five counts of war crime murder. The 47-year-old faces allegations over the killings of unarmed Afghan nationals in 2009 and 2012, charges he strongly denies, maintaining he acted within his training and the rules of engagement. He is required to report to police three times a week while preparing his defence, with the timing coinciding with the upcoming Anzac Day commemorations.
