The police are still working on interviewing witnesses. – We are working to identify witnesses who have not yet been questioned. – And we are working on analysis of the traces we have collected. We’re not done with all the interrogations and won’t be for a while yet. This is what police inspector Odd Skei Kostveit in the South-East police district says to news. – There may be witnesses who have not been identified – Is the investigation entering a new phase? – We have not yet fully completed the acquisition phase. Thus there may be witnesses who have not been identified and whom we have to question. After that, the police work further to process and analyze what they have found. – We have received a lot of information, and it is only when we have analyzed it that we can give a more concrete answer to it, he says. Kostveit confirms that there will be no new arrests in the future. – There is no one else who is suspected of murder or complicity in murder, says Kostveit.

And this was one of the ways to do it. But Kostveit will not go into more detail about how the police worked.
