Norwegian mercenaries detained in Kongo.

Lately there have been much inconvenience because of a case going on in Kongo. Two Norwegian citizens have been suspected for murder of a local driver.

One of the two men have been detained while the other is still running for it. They say they have been exposed to a conspiracy whose charges is based upon incomprehensible basis.

In all national newspapers it can be read that these men plead the embassy for help because of the angry mob.

The most peculiar and absurd with this case is that these men was, when detained in ownership of certain identity cards. Identity cards which should trouble the sleep of any social-democrat. The identity cards these men had acquired was from both the Norwegian military, and SIG - Special Intervention Group - the latter, a Norwegian based security firm with tasks equal to Blackwater.

Most people in Norway do not know this firm even exists. Why these men both have obtained army official identity and security firm troubles at least me. This doesn't necessarily mean that our military is doing business with private security firms, but what if. It is both scaring and cunning. Do the army really have deals with security firms - so that they can reduce the official no. of casualties of war?

This case raises numerous questions, but none intended for SIG.
