And who says that the Swedes are a quiet bunch? - don't make one angry!

I can hardly wait until his government finds out what he's doing. Isn't hiring people to kill someone illegal in Sweden?

Ex-hostage hires bounty hunters

26jun05

A HOSTAGE held alongside Australian Douglas Wood in Iraq has hired bounty hunters to track down his former captors, promising to eliminate them one by one.

Swede Ulf Hjertstrom, who was held for several weeks with Mr Wood in Baghdad, was released by his kidnappers on May 30.
Mr Hjertstrom has since claimed he shared information with US and Iraqi troops about Mr Wood which led to the release of the 63-year-old Australian engineers two weeks ago, after 47 days in captivity.

Now, he wants to find those responsible.

"I have now put some people to work to find these bastards," he told the Ten Network today.

"I invested about $50,000 so far and we will get them one by one."

Isn't murder for hire illegal for a Swedish citizen?
