Tjostolv Moland (28 February 1981 – 18 August 2013) was a former Norwegian army officer and private security contractor or ex-mercenary[1] arrested in May 2009 in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), and convicted (together with Joshua French) of murdering their driver and espionage for Norway.
One day after he died, The Guardian said that his "death overshadowed even the upcoming elections in Norway's media."[2] Furthermore, Reuters claimed that "The death penalty was later overturned by Congo's military high court"[3]—without mentioning that the prisoners were sentenced to death at the next trial.
