A representative from the Finnish state-owned arms company died mysteriously in Uganda last week.

• Except that he really wasn't authorized to be a representative, except he was, but a middle manager did it against protocol.

• He was to showcase Finnish military technology to the Ugandan government, but the invitation was a fraud, or so says the Ugandan government which also claims to have arrested all the people responsible for the fraudulent invitation.

• A Ugandan woman had visited multiple times the hotel room where the man died. She was interviewed by the Ugandan police.

• Drugs were found in the hotel room.

• A Ugandan reporter who had researched the case was abducted in broad daylight by security forces.

• Suvi Lindén, a Finnish former cabinet minister, had accompanied the dead man on the trip. A Ugandan police officer said that people should ask her about what had happened.

• Suvi Lindén says that her trip was about promoting information society, not military technology.

• Lindén and the man had been long-time acquaintances.

The case has made headlines in Finland.
