Copenhagen - The new sponsor for the CSC team of Danish ex-cyclist Bjarne Riis is bankrupt, reports said Monday.

Asger Jensby, chairman and co-owner of IT Factory, told Danish news agency Ritzau that the company is to file for bankruptcy.

A warrant has been filed for the group's chief executive who is suspected of fraud, the report said.

As of 2009, IT Factory was to have become co-sponsor of the racing team along with online investment bank Saxo.

US-based IT company CSC has been the team's main sponsor for the past eight years but in March said it was pulling out of professional cycling.

Copenhagen/Nuuk, Greenland  - Greenland is set to gain more autonomy within Denmark after a strong majority of voters approved an enhanced self-rule plan, election results showed Wednesday.

Roughly 75 per cent of voters voted "aap," or "yes," Tuesday to the plan that would give Greenland partial control over its natural resources and take greater charge of justice and legal affairs.

"Looking back over history, this is the first time we've been asked," Greenland Premier Hans Enoksen said after the results were declared. "I'm extremely moved because now, like other peoples, we will be recognized as a nation."

Copenhagen - The Danish Supreme Court was set to try the convictions of six people sentenced for supporting terrorist groups by selling T-shirts, an appeals board said Tuesday.

The Eastern High Court in September sentenced two persons to six- month jail terms. The others received suspended prison sentences ranging from 60 days to four months.

A seventh suspect was freed of the charges under anti-terrorism laws of using proceeds from the T-shirt sales to fund the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).
