operation was performed to achieve his capture.

credit cards, different documents, two sets of keys and 900 pesos in

Finland to Widen Missile Shipment Inquiry: Customs
AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE

HELSINKI - Finland wants to widen an inquiry into the illegal transit
of 69 Patriot missiles through its territory aboard a regular
merchant vessel, Finnish customs said Dec. 30.

Two Ukrainians - the ship's captain and the first mate - remained in
Finland and were subject to a travel ban during the ongoing
investigation.

"Next week ... we will want to hear more suspects or persons of
interest in the case. It is possible there may be others of
interest," the head of the Finnish customs anti-crime unit, Petri
Lounatmaa, told AFP.

The surface-to-air missiles, produced by U.S. firm Raytheon, were
discovered last week on the British-registered Thor Liberty docked in
the southeastern Finnish port of Kotka and bound for the Chinese port
city of Shanghai, according to Finnish police. Finnish customs are
investigating the case as one of illegal export of defense material.

Lounatmaa said customs and police investigators had "been in contact
with several countries" and the information gathered would help them
"focus ... investigations in the right direction."

He declined to provide any details on the nature of the information
received, noting only that some of it had come in the form of
intelligence briefs.

More official information would be needed as evidence if the case
goes to criminal proceedings, he said.

Last week, a German defense ministry spokesman said the missiles came
from the German military and were destined for South Korea, not
China. He said it was a "legal sale on the basis of an accord between
two states at the government level" and that export authorizations
were in order.

However, a senior Finnish defense ministry official said Finland had
not received any transit license application for the missiles from
Germany.

On Dec. 26, Finnish transport safety officials cleared the Thor
Liberty to leave Finland, after the missiles and most of the cargo of
150 tons of explosives had been unloaded from the vessel.

However, the vessel remained grounded by the travel ban on its first
officers.
