– When the police bring such things, it is often called “ensuring something in the original”, says former homicide investigator and author Jørn Lier Horst to news. Drone images taken over the crime scene in Nes in Ådal clearly show that two pieces of planks have been removed from the planking at the cabin where Jonas Aarseth Henriksen was found. Jørn Lier Horst worked as an investigative leader until he became a full-time writer in 2013.

Police attorney Tine Henriksen does not want to comment on news’s information, but says that they have made several seizures in the area. – Several investigations and seizures have been made, but we do not want to comment on what we have found, says the police attorney to news. The removal of the planks may indicate that the police’s forensic technicians have found clues that they believe can be linked to the murder, says Horst. – It could be projectiles from a weapon, for example. There may also be blood spatter and footprints, but it is most common to secure the spot. It could also be because the police have found traces under the paving which they want to secure, he says to news.

Here they can also do more research. If there are traces of a projectile, one can use chemical tests to check the metal’s alloy, whether it is brass, lead or another substance. If the investigators find both footprints from the perpetrator and traces of the projectile, they can potentially find where the shooter fired from. Investigating several crime scenes Jonas Aarseth Henriksen was, according to what news is informed, found shot dead in his own car. It was acquaintances of Jonas who found the car standing halfway out in the ditch on the remote gravel road in Nes in Ådal, at 5pm on Thursday 17 August. The road descends from the cabin, which is still cordoned off by the police. The car, which is a Mercedes Sprinter, was halfway out in the ditch with a trailer attached to the back. The van blocked large parts of the narrow dirt road. The car was standing with the front facing away from the cabin further up the road, news is informed. According to a satellite image news has gained access to, the car was at the discovery site at 12.26. The police do not want to comment on how long it has been there before this. A central theory remains whether the 30-year-old may have been tricked into the forest area, either through a fake job assignment or in another way. Know where and when he was killed An important question in the investigation has always been to find out whether there could be more crime scenes than the car where he was found. Ever since the murder investigation was launched 19 days ago, the cabin near the discovery site has been cordoned off and examined by forensics. The police say they have a clear idea of where and when the murder happened, but they do not want to give any further details this early in the investigation.

Five days later, the site was painted, and the car has been removed. © AIRBUS DS (2023) / NTB Tip news’s crime group: Do you have information about this case or other crime cases?
