••Il I II
Security Reconciliation Initiative briefing is c Derived • Multiple • DECL ON: X1 31 Dec 03
-gibraGTA' riEk MCI? II X!
le Purpose
The purpose is to outline the operational plan for the the Security Reconciliation Initiative in order to leverage the capture of HVD #1 to create opportunities to pull into constructive Iraqi society those who would otherwise opt out or be left out, excluding the hardcore cases; and to act decisively against those FRE who do not accept or qualify for the offer 2
-1 3feReF#47C-bilif414,41 44- Concept of Operation
• MI II I II
• A multi-pronged approach:
- Renunciation of violence
- Conditional release of those who comply
- Enhanced and re-publicized rewards program
• Conducted within the framework of the broader reconciliation and rule of law initiatives, spearheaded by the IGC and supported by the Coalition
• Broad political consensus including buy-in from, and participation by, the full spectrum of national and regional Iraqi leaders 3 sareat-Proastiferrir
Renunciation of Violence
• The renunciation of violence initiative calls for FRE to lay down their arms and refrain from violence and criminal acts
-It is not an amnesty or immunity from prosecution
• FRE who committed criminal acts, war crimes, or atrocities could still be prosecuted
• Renunciation does not require that FRE come forward or "surrender" -
- no other action will be required, but those FRE that choose to ignore the call to lay down their arms will find that the pressure on them will be increased Current planning is based on an announcement by Amb Bremer in a broad political speech outlining the new opportunities for reconciliation following the capture of HVD#1
•
4 CO3flET,S) REL leCrtrille'S
Increased Penalties as Part of the Initiative Sinn
• Those that are captured from 1 Jan 03 onwards will be subject to an increased mandatory minimum sentence for weapons/explosive offenses from 15 to 30 years
• SJA currently working with OGC to action the required amendment to CPA Order # 3 for and to ensure that a public notice is issued to inform Iraqis of these changes 5
Release of Detainees
ME111111
• CJTF-7 will support CPA's initiative by releasing approximately 500 detainees during the month of January, additional detainees released in following month as vetting process allows. An initial release of 100 detainees NLT 07 Jan 04.
6 c'ECrtri'OCLMt, /f n
Release of Detainees
• The procedures for executing the conditional release program are:
- 26 Dec. SJA provided initial list of eligible detainees to C2 for vetting
- 30 Dec. CCRB established, commences vetting of eligible detainees. Board will release 100 names & tribal affiliations per day. Names released to MSCs at the conclusion of each day. (Board will sit for an initial surge of 5 days to release a list of 500 eligible detainees to the MSCs by 4 Jan. From 4 Jan processing rates will reduce).
MSCs require a minimum of seven days to screen the CCRB list and identify guarantors.
- 7 Jan. Initial release of detainees to guarantors (at least
100).
- Ongoing vetting and release of detainees to suitable guarantors. No guarantor - no release.
7
Controlled Conditional Release Board 11111111111
• Creation of a Controlled Conditional Release Board (CCRB) - separate and distinct from the Security Internee Review and Appeal Board (SIFtAB)
• Composition will be a President, Military Intelligence officer nominated by C2 and a Judge Advocate nominated by &IA
• CCRB will meet to review nominations for controlled conditional release to meet specified timelines a A Release Coordinator will be nominated by 800 MP BDE to liaise between CCRB and MSCs and serve as a point of contact for coordinating transport to effect release 8
Guarantors
••11111
MSC to identify guarantors for eligible detainees identified by CCRB
• MSC to provide list of internees matched to guarantors through G2/C2 channels to the CCRB
• MSC to consider incentives to entice guarantors
• Guarantors only liability will be if he deliberately fails to report a violation by an internee released into his responsibility — penalty is loss of incentives and/or loss of credibility/status with local population
• If a guarantor cannot be identified for an eligible detainee then the detainee will not be released
• Guarantors must be willing/able to travel to the detention facility to take custody of the detainee and escort and transport him back to home location.
