"The court did not have the same valuation of the evidence as I had when I was prosecuted," says Mats Ihlbom, a chamber prosecutor.
In his prosecution, he presented evidence in the form of testimony from three police officers who identified persons who were then charged.
- It is difficult to get someone dropped if there are not enough three police officers identifying the person. A couple of them have watched thousands of hours of film and found that they are 100 percent safe. It is a pity that you do not think that the police officers are reliable, says Mats Ihlbom.
The prosecution also contained films from several of the car fires and notes from one of the defendants' mobile, in the form of a shopping list of items to be used in the fires.
Will you appeal this verdict?
- I haven't decided yet.
