After one of the offended women told the court about her experiences, state prosecutor Eli Nessimo read the police’s review report of the video material. The video will show Bye raping the woman during an examination at the doctor’s office. But while the court got to see the video, the defendant and his lawyer reacted. When the court adjourned, the defenders, the state attorney and assistant lawyers met. After the break, state prosecutor Eli Nessimo was able to confirm that the video file did not show the right woman. Wrong woman When the video file was played in court, Arne Bye and his two defenders reacted. After meeting activities during the break, the state attorney returned. – There was input from the defense and defendant during the break, who question whether it is the right patient on the video, state prosecutor Eli Nessimo told the court. Nessimo said that they have not had time to clarify whether the woman in the video is the same one who gave her statement to the court earlier on Wednesday. – We cannot say with certainty that it is. District judge Espen Haug then decided that the court had to take a break to clarify the situation. After another pause, it became clear that it was the wrong woman in the video. Nessimo said they have other video files they can play that show the woman who explained herself on Wednesday. The woman did not wish to be present in court when the video was played. The picture is taken from the video that was shown to the court on Tuesday. It is Arne Bye who has the film from the examination room at the doctor’s office. Photo: The image taken from one of Arne Bye’s cameras / Released by the police Woman had the case dropped Also in the past, women have been confused in the video material from the doctor’s office. On the same day that the trial against the former municipal superintendent started, it became known that a woman had had her case dropped. The reason was that the State Attorney had looked at the wrong video file when they prepared the indictment. – It later turned out that the video file did not apply to the victim in question, Nessimo said then. Later, the woman had her case dropped. – When we were able to obtain the correct video file, it was our assessment, combined with other evidence, that the case had to be dropped due to the position of the evidence. 77 of the total of 94 offended women are said to have been found in the video material, which in total is 5,500 hours long.
