Every part of this is insane.

The student Jumaah (an adult) returned willingly to Iraq to protect his wife and texts the professor to essentially apologise for the high likely-hood he wouldn't be able to turn in his homework (cos, you know.. beheadings).

The professor chats to their Uni Security Chief who leaps to attention and hires his "go-to" mercenary force to rescue the student and his family?!

They then happily give him a seemingly smallish bill for the whole job and no mention of visa problems. Wtf Sweden, is this normal?

That's a great story. But who is this university security chief? I for some reason picture Bruce Willis, who just retired from being some CIA/Navy Seals operative and just took up this job wanting to quietly live out the rest of his years at the university.
