11 June 2024 at 11:15 Man and woman charged with attempted murder in Stavanger On Saturday evening at 19.26, the police received a report of a serious incident of violence on Sunde in Stavanger. The police and health rushed to the scene. A man in his 20s was transported to Stavanger University Hospital (SUS) with stab wounds. A woman and a man in their 20s were arrested at a nearby address on the same night. – The police have been investigating the case since Saturday evening. We have interviewed both the victim and the accused, as well as witness interviews. Both technical and tactical investigations have also been carried out. A man and a woman were charged with grievous bodily harm, but the preliminary investigation has led to them now being charged with attempted murder, says police prosecutor Mads Lerum. They will be produced for remand today at 12.00 and 1.30 pm in Sør-Rogaland District Court, court location Sandnes. – They are being produced for remand on the basis of the risk of tampering with evidence, says Lerum. – My client does not plead guilty to attempted murder. She was extensively questioned yesterday and has given a detailed explanation and will oppose imprisonment, says the woman’s defender Karianne Kroken Sævereide. Her client has admitted in questioning that she was at the scene, but denies criminal guilt for attempted murder. Anne Hølland is defending the other accused, a man in his 20s. He also pleads not guilty. – He claims that he has acted out of necessity. He puts himself in context with both the place and the situation, but explains that he has not done anything punishable, says Hølland.
