According to this: On March 17, [former Iraqi general Nizar Khazraji] disappeared from the Danish town of Soroe, and his family put out word that Iraqi agents had possibly kidnapped him. No one, least of all the magistrate investigating Khazraji, truly bought this. It now seems his flight was planned. Several reports, all unconfirmed, suggested Khazraji had made his way to the Gulf to help the American war effort.

(Before his disappearance, Khazraji was under house arrest while Danish prosecutors investigated his alleged role in gas attacks on Kurds).
