  I don't know... reduced prison sentences are common for criminals who fully co-operate with the police. Whether 6 months to a year in a secure unit will count as fit punishment remains to be seen. If he is indeed involved in the deaths of thousands he should be locked up for a few years even with full co-operation, after a proper trial by the International War Crimes Court or similar body.
  
  But I guess if someone has very important information and becomes a ‘supergrass’ authorities might be prepared to let them off the hook more easily.

  He may have been the mole.
  
  What we should do with him really rests on how closely he was involved in the genocide...

  To be a fly on the wall in the British Intelligence Service...
  
  Of course, if he was the mole, Clandestine and Aladdin would still insist we should have publicized our information to the UN.
