A slight difference of opinion.

Kyrgyz police: Major's Story 'confused'...

Rants and Raves: Kyrgyz police blind...

Basically, the police in Kyrgystan are complaining that the US Army Major who was recently abducted and returned was confused about the details in her story...mostly because she didn't really speak to them much. She gave them her story, and was then taken to a hospital in Germany (I think). The people who found her said that her face was bruised...but the police deny this. Then they say she only looked tired, while the people who found her say she was in clothes much too big for her. The police evidently don't believe that her necklace was stolen because she still had her wedding ring. While this may be their best point, I'm going to wager that it's much easier to rip a loose necklace off of a newly married US Army Major than it is to rip her finger off - which is probably what it would take to get that new ring away from her.

I dislike petty bureaucrats getting in the way of getting the job done.
