In 2009, the Minister of Defence Equipment in the U.K. asked Global Technical Co. Ltd, to remove asuggested Minister of Defence endorsement from their website. According to recent open sourcereporting the endorsement was never removed.The Thai Prime Minister
9
was asked by the “Committee of the south” to withdraw the use of the GT200based on the U.S. Military’s concern over the Iraqi’s use of the devices and the research showing theyclearly do not function as claimed. The request also asks the Thai government to withdraw the devicesuntil they have been scientifically tested. It is estimated that 800 of the devices have been sold to thepolice at a cost of 11,000 pounds ($18,500 U.S. Dollars) each. As of February 14, 2010, the PrimeMinister of Thailand has banned the purchase of anymore GT200

. The U.S. Navy
11
had tested thedevice in 2005 at the Yuma Proving Grounds on explosives and it was determined the “detectorperformed no better than random chance over the course of the testing” and “None of the vendor’sclaims proved true during this test series”.As of January 2010, the Iraqi government has ordered an investigation into the GT200 and thecompany’s claims, and the U.S. Department of Defense was rushing 145 bomb detection dogs to Iraq

 to provide the government of Iraq with a viable and tested bomb detection option.Dr. Markus Kuhn

of Cambridge University in a program by Newsnight and BBC dated January 22,2010, in reference to the cards (photo on page 2) the device uses stated; “There is nothing to program onthese cards. There is no memory. There is no microcontroller. There is no way any form of information can be stored.” The cards apparently contained nothing other than anti-theft sticker/tag usedin stores to prevent shoplifting which cannot store any information. The owner of Global TechnicalLtd., Jim McCorrmick, who claims that the device works similar to “dowsing,” and was arrested by theBritish Government on suspicion of fraud on January 23, 2010.On January 23, 2010, the British Government’s statement in response to the Newsnight and BBC storyled to the following official statement: "Tests have shown that the technology used in the ADE651 andsimilar devices is not suitable for bomb detection. As non-military technology it does not need an exportlicence, and we would not normally need to monitor its sale and use abroad. However, it is clearly of concern that it is being used as bomb detection equipment. As soon as it was brought to the attention of the Export Control Organisation and Lord Mandelson” (the current First Secretary of State, Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, President of the Board of Trade and Lord President of theCouncil) ” we acted urgently to put in place export restrictions which will come into force next week.”The UK Minister of Defence made an order, under the Export Control Act 2002 and banned the exportof this type of device to Iraq and Afghanistan
14
. The reason the ban is limited to these two countries isthat it is in their authority is limited to products which could cause harm to UK and other friendly forces.The British Embassy Baghdad has raised concerns about the ADE651 with the Iraqi authorities. They
