The London Observer is reporting the U.S. multinational corporation DynCorp has won a multimillion-dollar contract to police Iraq. DynCorp began recruiting for a private police force last week. But the corporation faces accusations of human rights violations around the world. A British tribunal recently forced DynCorp to pay compensation to an employee who blew the whistle on colleagues involved in a sex ring in Bosnia, where the company was policing. Ecuadorians have filed a class-action lawsuit against the company for spraying herbicides that killed legitimate crops, caused illness and killed children.
