This is revealed in a recent ruling from the Vestfold District Court. The man (23) is one of four charged with murder or complicity in the murder of 33-year-old Bård Lanes. Lanes was shot and killed in the open street in April 2021. The four will appear in court on Tuesday. During the investigation of the man, who is a Brazilian citizen, undercover agents were brought in who spoke Portuguese and pretended to be criminals to get information out of the 23-year-old. This is called infiltration. news has previously reported how the agents flew the accused 23-year-old to Tromsø and lowered him. But what was said in Tromsø cannot now be used as evidence, the district court has decided. In the recent ruling, it is stated that the conversations in Tromsø have “clear similarities with police interrogations”, and that the defendant is obviously struggling not to answer questions about the murder and his connection to it.
