About this episode
During a SAS raid on a village in Afghanistan in 2012, an imam and his adult son were killed.
A leaked 2012 ADF inquiry found the killings of the imam and his son in Sola were within the rules of engagement.
But those there on that day say the killings were an execution.
Dateline journalists are the first Australian reporters to visit Sola and directly speak to witnesses in search of answers.
