'Looks like' Diggers shot Afghan governor | The Australian:
Australian special forces soldiers may have inadvertently shot dead Afghan district Governor Rozi Khan, defence head Angus Houston has admitted.
Hmm, faux pas...
Air Chief Marshal Houston said the "very confused situation" was still being investigated.

"But, you know, it certainly looks that way," he said when asked whether Australian troops had shot the governor.

"On the bright side, we did not shoot the deputy!"
