from sweden with love (by way of the old west)
A Swedish oil broker who has lived in Iraq for a while was kidnapped some time ago by terrorists there. He was later released by the kidnappers.
Many people simply thank the Lord they’re alive, and walk into the waiting arms of their loving families. Others manipulate their ordeal (assuming, of course, it wasn’t staged to begin with) for pro-enemy propaganda purposes.
But Ulf Hjertström is not quite either of these. This man of age past 60 and of considerable financial means has hired bounty hunters to track and kill his kidnappers. Apparently, the bounty hunters have already found two of their targets, and (ahem) dealt with them.

I think that is an extension of the Untouchables “Chicago Way.”
