Wants a trial in Norway The Norwegian was charged with bodily harm resulting in death and was released on bail of NOK 60,000. After the murder, he was supposed to appear in court in Phuket to consider the conditions for further bail, but did not appear. The man has told TV 2 that he has long wanted to come home to Norway to report to the police. He also tells the website that he wants a trial in Norway, and is willing to go to prison for the murder. Stein Morten Lier, who documented the trip to Gardemoen for the podcast “Interrogated”, says that the Norwegian has traveled to Norway under a passport that belongs to someone else. He believes that the man will now report to the police: – I would think that he will go to the emergency room for a check-up, and after that I think he will go to the police together with his lawyer. – But I don’t know, I told him at the airport, says Lier.
