Kerala-born man's firm linked to sale of Hezbollah pagers that exploded, probe underway
A Bulgaria-based firm owned by Kerala-born Rinson Jose, now a Norwegian citizen, is allegedly linked to the pager explosions that killed and wounded thousands of people. Reports claimed Jose's Norta Global took delivery of parts from Taiwan-based Gold Apollos and facilitated pagers' sale. While Bulgarian authorities cleared Jose's involvement, Norwegian authorities are still probing the matter.
