War babies died in LSD experiments

Norwegian institutions used children with German fathers as human guinea pigs during the 50s and 60s to test the effects of LSD.

The claims are made in connection with a compensation suit being brought against the Norwegian state by more than 50 offspring of German fathers.

The children were used along with psychiatric patients and selected persons from "weaker" sections of society.

The full extent of the project is not known, but of the ten war babies involved, at least three or four died as a direct result of the secret experiments writes the daily Dagsavisen.

The LSD research was allegedly carriedout by the pharmacological institute at Oslo University, the army's technical weapons corps and the CIA.
