The police arrested and charged a man in Rena at 11.09 on Thursday. He is charged with the murder of Jonas Aarseth Henriksen (30) on 17 August. At the same time, a car salvage company took a car that will be examined after the arrest. On Friday, a car without plates was examined. A large area was cordoned off at the rural plot on Rena after the arrest, and on Friday several investigations are being carried out on the property. Much of the time the police spent on yet another car. Three officers from the police and a forensic dog examined the car. The dog and a forensics technician were also inside the car, which appears to be partitioned off. One of the officers also got into the trunk and spent a lot of time on the front passenger door. The police also spent a lot of time on one of the wheels. WHEEL TRACKS? With camera and equipment, the white-clad crime scene technicians spent time on the right rear tyre.

What are you interested in finding? – I cannot go into detail about it. For the sake of the investigation, we believe it is important to be careful with what evidence we have secured and be very specific about the investigative steps we take, says Henriksen. She will not comment on whether the police know whether a car was used to and from the crime scene. She also says that it is “absolutely central to map which car or cars have been used”. The police have long wondered how the person or persons who killed the 30-year-old got to and from the crime scene. Also this week, police attorney Tine Henriksen has said that they are working on several hypotheses. Denies involvement in the murder The man who has been arrested and charged with the murder denies guilt. He also does not want to explain himself to the police. The police have requested the man be remanded in custody for four weeks, and a ruling is expected during Friday afternoon. As far as news knows, the man does not have a driving license for a car. There are also no cars registered to him. He has previously been convicted a number of times, most recently last year. He has also been convicted of stealing cars. DOOR EXAMINATION: One of the crime scene technicians was inside the car to examine the front passenger door, which was also photographed. Photo: Lars Erik Skrefsrud – He is clear that it has nothing to do with the murder and does not plead guilty, says defense attorney Ellen Tvedten Jorem at Elden Advokatfirma AS. – Why does he not want to be questioned? DEFENDER: Ellen Tvedten Jorem defends the accused together with lawyer Thomas Randby. Photo: Henning Rønhovde / news – Based on his previous experience with the police and the arrest in this case, he has expressed to Randby and me that he does not trust the police. So, in consultation with me and lawyer Randby, he has decided to make use of his late right not to explain himself, says the defender.
