Gjert Ingebrigtsen also commented on the statement from Tj\u00f8rhom in court: &#8211; You had a desire for Dad to go out, and it is confirmed that that incident with (NN, daughter) was a &#8220;luck in accident&#8221; rather than a serious case, he said. Gjert Ingebrigtsen is charged with abuse in close relationships. He denies criminal charges and rejects all charges. &#8211; Managed to settle H\u00e5vard Tj\u00f8rhom said that the brothers perceived the sister as the strongest. The fact that she dared to break with her father was what was needed for them to settle that settlement, according to the athletics leader. When Gjert Ingebrigtsen and sons broke the training collaboration in early 2022, Tj\u00f8rhom thought it would be natural for Ingebrigtsen to finish as coach for Narve Gilje Nord\u00e5s as well. &#8211; Gjert told me that he had promised to train Narve further, but I asked him if the family situation was not more important. &#8211; Gjert wanted to destroy H\u00e5vard Tj\u00f8rhom also talked a lot with the runners Ingebrigtsen during this period. &#8211; They were very private, but they told me that Gjert wanted to destroy them.

H\u00e5vard Tj\u00f8rhom on his way into the courtroom. Photo: Syed Ali Shahbaz Akhtar \/ news &#8211; Gjert knows very well that athletes at this level are on a knife edge in terms of load. The less recovery you get, the more the likelihood of you get hurt, Tj\u00f8rhom said, adding: &#8220;It&#8217;s hard for me to prove, but I clearly believe that he is fully aware of this. Through all the noise he creates.

Because he knows that there is a point where Jacob will eventually come. I felt that he was standing in the stairs there. Open, Tj\u00f8rhom said. Gjert Ingebrigtsen commented on this incident like this: &#8211; If I have been in a staircase where someone was going, it has been completely unknown to me before he tells it now. So I just have to complain. Furthermore, Gjert Ingebrigtsen said that for the past three years he had tried not to be present where his children were, unless he had to follow up Narve. &#8220;Sometimes you have to be where you have to be,&#8221; Gjert said. &#8211; Demanding prosecutor Ellen Gimre asked Tj\u00f8rhom to describe Gjert Ingebrigtsen as a person.

The conversations often started with &#8220;now everything is wrong&#8221;. Gjert is a very honest person, but can also be perceived as hurtful, Tj\u00f8rhom said. Gjert Ingebrigtsen pulled out Tj\u00f8rhom, during his explanation earlier in the trial.
