Shortly after the Mumbai attacks, Headley allegedly planned a trip to Denmark. By the time he returned to Chicago in June 2009, he appeared anxious about the lack of progress. "What is the status with the Northern project, is it still postponed indefinitely?" he allegedly asked his LeT handlers in a July 2009 e-mail that was quoted in the complaint filed...

It's a policy born in Denmark, dubbed "flex security," which keeps the cost of layoffs low for employers and the benefits (including retraining services) high for those laid off.
