==History==
In April 2003, the company was criticized by Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean for operations in Côte d'Ivoire that "seriously undermine the peace process".〔(Lords Hansard text for 3 Apr 2003 (230403w02) )〕 In May 2003, Northbridge commandos rescued dozens of oil workers being held hostage on an oil rig. In June 2003, the company offered to kidnap embattled Liberian president Charles Taylor for $4 million.〔(Dogs of Peace )〕 The offer was rejected and Northbridge was subsequently investigated by the FBI.〔(CorpWatch : Liberia: Northbridge Services Group Under Investigation )〕
The firm hit the news in late 2003 when it announced it was seeking an investor to fund an operation to seize the disgraced ex-Liberian President Charles Taylor, who had been granted asylum in Nigeria at the time. Northbridge claimed that it had personnel that were ready to kidnap Taylor for a $2 million reward which had been offered by the United States Congress.〔 A director at the firm, Pasquale Dipofi, said that any potential investors in the operation would be able to split the profits with the firm.〔
