The man has been remanded in custody for four weeks with a ban on letters and visits, reports VG. He is charged with attempted murder and denies guilt. This is what the arrested man’s defender, Vidar Lind Iversen, told news. – I have not been allowed to review the ruling, but will go through it with my client. We will consider using legal remedies, says defense attorney Vidar Lind Iversen to news about the letter and visiting ban. The man in his 30s was arrested on Friday evening. Then the police were looking for him after a shooting incident at a fast food restaurant in Nydalen in Oslo on Monday evening. Nettavisen mentioned the case first. The man was produced for imprisonment today at 2.30 pm. – Undramatic arrest Police prosecutor Christian Hatlo told news ahead of the prison meeting that the arrest took place at a private address in Moss which is not the man’s home. – The arrest took place in an apartment that does not belong to the accused. It was an undramatic arrest, says Hatlo. – So far he has not wanted to explain himself to the police. No one was injured in the shooting, but police are investigating the incident as attempted murder. The police previously investigated whether what happened in Nydalen is related to other shooting incidents in Oslo recently. According to Hatlo, the police no longer suspect any connection. On the night of 15 January at the latest, two members associated with the Young Guns gang leadership were seriously injured by gunshots in the area near the National Theater in Oslo. This incident is being investigated in connection with a stabbing in Lillestrøm on 3 December. One shot fired The police have formed a picture of what has been going on from the time the shot was fired in Nydalen to the arrest: – We have a good deal of information about it, but we do not have the complete picture. It is a bit early to give information. – How many shots were fired in Nydalen? – One shot. So far, the investigation indicates that the victim and the accused did not know each other from before, the police say. They also no longer suspect gang affiliation. – The accused is well known to the police from the past. There is nothing to indicate that he has gang affiliation, emphasizes police attorney Hatlo. Unknown motive The motive for the shooting is so far unknown. – It is a focus for us now to clarify that. – There have been several shooting incidents in Oslo recently. Is there reason for ordinary Oslo residents to worry? – These are very serious matters. That’s why we put in great resources. But these other shootings are more about gang violence. Then it is the criminals who may not live safely, but for most people I think it is safe, reassures police attorney Hatlo.
