The Sandline Affair: Politics and Mercenaries in the Bougainville Crisis (1999) By Sean Dorney
The Sandline affair began in March 1996, when the government of Papua New Guinea attempted to hire mercenaries from Sandline International, a London-based private military company, that in turn employed the South African military contractor Executive Outcomes.
As negotiations with Sandline continued, in July the PNG Defence Force launched a new offensive on Bougainville. However, the attack failed, suffering from poor logistical planning, a lack of intelligence on Bougainville Revolutionary Army locations and mounting casualties.
