    Liebenau grenade-transfer controversy

    An employee at Eurometaal's Liebenau hand-grenade factory disclosed that grenades produced there had been used in the Kurdish-Turkish conflict. The grenades had transited through the Netherlands before being supplied to Turkey, despite a German ban on arms trade with Turkey. The disclosure caused a public-relations crisis and was followed by closure of the German factory.
