#1 That 890,000 NOK is worth a bit less than $150,000 at recent exchange rates.

#2 Arshad Mahmood. I'll bet he can trace his ancestry back to the Vikings, right?

#3 "He allegedly ran a virtual torture chamber in the basement of his home."

Was this on a PC or do you need one of those Wii things?

#5 Norway's use of forvaring is very interesting. Look it up, you'll find that there isn't much on it in English, very hush, hush. Some kind of renewable prison term, a legal black hole of sorts. It sounds like just desserts for an asshole like this.

#6 Wow! A whole nine years for organized crime, multiple kidnapping and torture. The Norse really locked him up and threw away the key. With the newly discovered Paris Hilton medical syndrome, Mahmood will be out in 3 days.

#7 The name Arshad Mahmood must be a typo. If this is Oslo, NORWAY, his real name has to be something like Arne Mammosen...

Uh huh...

#9 And what of the relatives who one imagines were aware a torture chamber was on site?

Put the lot of them on a raft and set it alight. If any attempt to swim for shore they are recaptured and get the special treatment.

#10 Penguin gets my vote for the 'Understated Snark of the Week' award!

Yup! I second the emotion.

Put the lot of them on a raft and set it alight. If any attempt to swim for shore they are recaptured and get the special treatment.

Whoa! You mean the raft wasn't the special treatment?

#11 He allegedly ran a virtual torture chamber in the basement of his home.

He's been convicted numerous times for violence, assault and making threats...

nine years of special custody...relatively harsh sentence

Therein lies the great Euro-US division.
