SO this brilliant bit of news came in with a market area report from one of the shipping lines I work with. Absolute real life situation but I share not so much for that interest but more because it could have been pulled straight out of the CLUE Files or even out of many of our gaming histories.

Tanzania
More than 20 Congolese soldiers have been detained in Tanzania for illegally entering the north-west of the country. They said they were pursuing rebels from the Democratic Republic of Congo seeking medical treatment in Tanzania. The heavily armed men were arrested after docking next to a police vessel at Kigoma port on Lake Tanganyika. The soldiers, who are still being questioned, were carrying 17 sub-machine guns, rocket-propelled grenades, pistols, hand grenades and three surface-to-air missiles used for shooting down planes.
