Murder most odd

Article Abstract:

Circumstances surrounding the murder of a Vatican Swiss Guard commander and his wife and the subsequent suicide of the Swiss Guard soldier who killed them remain mysterious.

To a former Swiss Guard, the murder was an anomalous act of madness.

Dictatorial democrats

Article Abstract:

The Organization of Security and Cooperation in Europe disqualified many candidates who allegedly violated Bosnian election rules. Despite these disqualifications, many extremists won and Western-favored candidates lost. Bosnian Serbs voted out their moderate President Biljana Plavsic, and instead elected Nikola Poplasen, who is considered more extremist than the indicted war criminal Radovan Karadzic.
