– It seems that the police have done a very thorough investigation. It remains to be seen what is happening in court and I get more information, especially when investigative materials are released. This is what Eelis Bjurström, editor of politics, society and Crimea in the fishing public broadcaster Yle. October 13 last year, in his 60s, a trundle shot and killed his former cohabitant, Janne Pukakka, in their joint home in Esbo, Finland.

Being convicted of “lifetime” in Finland corresponds to being sentenced to 12 years custody in Norway and that the person can first ask to be loose after the 12 years have passed. – But if you get a “lifetime” in prison, you can end up sitting in prison for the rest of your life, explains Bjurström. “Lifetime” in Finland to be convicted of “lifetime” in Finland corresponds to being sentenced to 12 years custody in Norway. Only after the 12 years have passed can the person ask to become a trial. If the person in question is denied a trial relief, this can be reassessed once a year. If the person becomes the trial, there is a probationary period of three years. And if new offenses are done during probation, he must return to prison. When someone asks to become a trial, both the health of the person in question and whether it is safe to relieve the person in the community is safe again. – Professionals are considering whether you are a danger to society, explains Eelis Bjurström in Yle. In addition, Finnish President can pardon criminals, but this happens very rarely. So if one is sentenced to what is called “lifetime” Finland, you may risk sitting in prison for the rest of your life. – But you have the opportunity to release before if there is no reason to stay in prison, Bjurström adds. The prosecution in Finland asks for this particular penalty in the case against the murdered Norwegian who goes to court in Finland from 13 to 18 March. Has explained that he shot Pukakka because the relationship ended the Finnish police think the killing of 29 -year -old Janne was planned, gruesome and brutal. Therefore, the prosecution wants the Tronder to be convicted of deliberate murder. The Norwegian from Trøndelag has acknowledged that he shot and caused Pukakka’s death. – He has admitted that he caused Pukakka’s death and said it was because the relationship ended. But he says it was not a planned, deliberate murder, says Bjurström. The relationship between the 29-year-old and the Trønder should have ended shortly before the murder. Shortly after the killing, Luoto said that defends the man that they have a different perception of the case than the police. “He is crushed and felt very sorry for the victim and the relatives,” Luoto said. The defender would be photographed in connection with the custody of the Norwegian.

The 60-year-old himself has explained that he shot Pukakka with a hunting shot he had allowed to have in Norway. According to police, the 29-year-old was hit by two shots. Pukakka had got new parties. – He lives nearby and had been contacted, explains Bjurström. According to the fishing newspaper Helsingin Sanomat, Pukakka had a new partner after the breakdown with the murdered Norwegian. The killing of 29-year-old Janne Pukakka has shocked many in Finland.

And then there is the Norwegian media as well, says the editor of Yle. The court is a precursor to the fact that there will be a lot of press in the case during the trial. – When the case starts in court, the entire ESBO comes to be full of journalists from Finland, Norway and potentially other countries as well, Bjurström adds. – He was seen as a driver Pukakka was a well -known Finnish ice hockey player, especially known for being the first open gay man in the sport. – He was seen as a driver in a very masculine sport, says Bjurström. Pukakka and defendants openly talked about his relationship in the Finnish press. – He is one of the bravest players in Finland. It said Ilmari Pitkänen who played ice hockey together with the Pukakka for the elite series team Esbo Blues in 2016. The 29-year-old currently participated in the Finnish edition of “Barrier”, which is called “Petolliset” in Finland. – The program is about someone are murders and others are victims. And this program went on TV when Pukakka was killed, says Bjurstöm. Published 13.03.2025, at. 05.13
