Not really, the story itself didn't even get much attetion over here, if anything the Brits kind of expect this stuff from Ghurkas. He'll probably be given a stern bollocking, a month or two of make-work then get quietly redeployed to his unit.

The simple fact is he didn't actualy break Queen's regulations or any of the varied laws for mistreatment of prisoners as the bugger was dead prior to decapitation. Despite what the governemnt likes to think, the army itself is very protective of the Ghurkas.
