The Bureau of Police Affairs believed at the time that a strip search was right because it would maintain peace and order, and because it would ensure safety for other people around.

Lawyer John Christian Elden represented the Rosenborg supporters in 2019, and believes the police cannot use more force than necessary. – The police must have a very specific suspicion and the place they search must be suitable for finding fireworks. If not, it is in any case not legal, says Elden today. Several supporters were detained by the police after the match ended. Photo: Rahand Bazaz / news Are you thinking of something? Hi!
