agree  Desmond O'Rourke: an incident in this context is something depending on or relating to another thing in law [suomeksi siis sivuetu tai sivuvelvoite]

Explanation:
My guess is this is a direct "finnization" from the English word incidents referring to tapahtuma, välikohtaus, häiriö, or whatever the context dictates.

Explanation:
Hi Spencer,
Could the writer be referring to "sivuasia" but using an English loanword "insidentti" instead of the Finnish word? According to MOT Law an incident (or an incidental matter) is 'sivuasia' in Finnish.
