According to a statement from Safia Benaouda, a 17 year old Swede who was held as a terror suspect for weeks in Ethiopia, her arrest and those of others imprisoned with her, all of them fleeing Somalia, were directed by American soldiers in uniform. She told Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet:
"After the American soldiers had detained [us] they kept in the background, but it was very clear that they were the ones in charge".
Ms. Benaouda was eventually freed after several weeks in an Ethiopian prison.
