He believes that good police work was done initially in the case. A police patrol has been to the scene and looked for clues, but they did not find video surveillance showing the incident or the people. – We had little detailed descriptions. He was thoroughly bruised and was very affected by it, unfortunately. We had nothing to go by. These cases are very painful to put down. BURNT: Police prosecutor Per Øyvind Valland says that it was painful to drop the case, but that they have few leads to follow.

Sæbø believes that the violence seems planned, i.e. something several people have agreed to do together. – This is something we thought we were rid of. It shows that we clearly have people around us who have values ​​that are not compatible with the rest of the world, says Sæbø. The football club has collected over NOK 230,000 through Spleis, to cover health expenses. They also organize torchlight processions through Nygårdsparken on Thursday evenings. – I appreciate everyone in the local community who has been at the forefront and created Spleis and organizes torchlight processions. That says something about how happy they are with me. I haven’t asked for it, says Ali.
