Finland demands clarification from Afghanistan over reported release of peacekeeper killers Tuesday, November 27, 2007 http://www.iht.com/bin/printfriendly.php?id=8497263 HELSINKI, Finland: Finland has demanded Afghanistan clarify why five people serving a sentence for killing a Finnish peacekeeper have reportedly been released, Foreign Minister Ilkka Kanerva said Tuesday. "We cannot accept this kind of behavior. It is not acceptable for us to continue in Afghanistan in this way," Kanerva told reporters, but did not elaborate. "We want a full explanation." On May 23, Finnish and Norwegian soldiers were accompanying NATO-led medical personnel near the northern city of Maymana when a roadside bomb exploded, killing Sgt. Petri Immonen and wounding four Norwegians as well as several civilians. Seven Afghani men were originally sentenced to death for the attack, but the penalty was later changed to 20-year prison sentences. On Monday, the Foreign Ministry said it had information that five of the accused had been released. Kanerva gave no details, but said he believed the reported releases were connected to "some sort of religious tradition." "But that's merely a supposition," he said, adding that Finland would continue efforts to reach Afghan authorities "until we get an answer." Immonen was the first Finnish peacekeeper to be killed in Afghanistan, where the neutral Nordic country has some 70 peacekeepers under NATO command.
