A US soldier, charged with forming a group that killed 'for fun,' confesses to killing 3 innocent Afghans with a fellow soldier confirming that the killings were out of "pure hatred".

(ABNA.IR) - It is charged that the 22-year old Spc. Sgt. Jeremy N. Morlock, along with 3 other US soldiers led by Staff Sgt. Calvin R Gibbs, killed Afghan civilians as a sport and collected body parts as trophies in yet another one of the most shocking stories told on assaults committed by US military personnel.

The charges detail some of the cruelest acts carried out by US troops since their invasion of Afghanistan began in 2001.

Investigators at a pretrial hearing in a military courtroom in Washington heard Morlock, a member of the 5th Stryker Combat Brigade, admitting his involvement in the killings that took place in Afghanistan's Qandahar province between January and May.
