The deceased, who was in his 20s, was shot dead in Oslo early on Sunday morning 27 November. On the same day, a man in his 30s was arrested and charged with the murder in Greenland. During a press conference on the same day, the police said that this could be a revenge settlement and that the person killed belonged to a criminal circle. – The family is very disappointed and shocked at how the police have contributed to drawing an incorrect picture of the deceased in the media. It has happened in particular through the police press conference on Sunday where they stated completely incorrectly that he had been convicted of a number of matters in the past, says the family’s legal aid lawyer Kaja De Vibe Malling. The murdered man has been convicted three times – but only for what can be called minor matters. None of the sentences are about gang crime. This is shown by the verdicts that news has seen. The circumstances are about a fight at a party, having disturbed the night’s tranquility and he has also refused to accept a summons from the police. He had to pay a fine for this.

Police attorney Kari Kirkhorn tells news that the police have had a meeting with those left behind in the murder case. – Afterwards, the police had a meeting with the bereaved and tried to explain and that we want to learn from what appears to be an unfortunate and imprecise statement. – The purpose was to keep the population safe. – The family reacted to the fact that he was portrayed as almost a gang criminal shortly after the murder. Do you understand that? – We are investigating the background to what happened to see if there was a motive, and as of now there is no indication that this was a settlement between criminals, she says. A man in his 20s was shot dead in Oslo early Sunday morning. – The family is very distressed Assistance lawyer Kaja De Vibe Malling believes the police were far too quick to link the murder to a possible gang settlement. – They were very quick to conclude that this was connected to a settlement in a criminal environment. The family is happy that the police have gone back on it and said that there is nothing in the investigation that allows them to conclude that, the lawyer points out. – How is the family affected by what has happened? – The family is very affected. They are in deep grief, she says. Family spokesperson Jamal Sheik.

He also believes that the media should show more restraint in covering the murder. – And then it is important to communicate that he was a great boy. He says that the family is left without answers about what may have happened. – They don’t have many explanations. They cannot understand that their son and brother are not here today.
