In the early morning of March 22th three disarmers were arrested at Saab Aerospace Systems’ weapons factory in Linköping, Sweden. Martin Smedjeback, Annika Spalde and Pelle Strindlund were on their way todisarm Jas 39 Gripen fighter jets, planes intended for export to India, Thailand and South Africa.
