A U.S. Army private identified as a whistleblower in the investigation of rogue infantrymen accused of terrorizing Afghan civilians and fellow soldiers appeared in military court on Thursday but refused to testify.
Private first-class Justin Stoner was called as a witness in the prosecution of Staff Sergeant David Bram, the second of 12 soldiers to face a hearing in a case that grew from a probe of hashish abuse into charges of atrocities that Pentagon officials have said could undermine the U.S. war effort.
