As reported today in the Independent:

An inquest has opened into the deaths of Lance Corporal Craig Roberts and newly-identified Edward Maher. A coroner has suggested that the Ministry of Defence could face legal action over two soldiers who died while undergoing the gruelling SAS selection process.

I think any comments in relation to this tragedy should be left until the outcome of any inquest.
