In March, Västmanland District Court acquitted the wooden billionaire Karl Hedin and three other co-defendants in the high-profile hunting root case. On Friday, Expressen reports that the prosecutor has appealed to the Court of Appeal. - I think that the district court made things a little too easy for itself and did not go in and try properly, says chamber prosecutor Lars Magnusson to the newspaper.
The part that is appealed concerns the suspected serious hunting crime when Karl Hedin and another man are suspected of having been in the forests around Virsbo in the act of killing wolves.
Something they were acquitted of in the district court.
- I think I have the opportunity for the greatest success when it comes to the incident on October 26, 2018. That incident lacks the procedural difficulties that existed in the poison part, says chamber prosecutor Lars Magnusson to Expressen.
