Liberia video troops to be quizzed

TWO soldiers at the centre of a peacekeeping scandal where they taunted civilians with their guns are to be questioned in the coming weeks.

The two were recorded on a popular internet website pointing their weapons at locals in Liberia and pretending to fire at them.

The incident has caused outrage within the Defence Forces and the Department of Defence as the reports coincided with the return home of the last battalion of Irish troops from the west African state.
