Thursday's negotiations about the murder at Notviken in Luleå started with the witness and plaintiff who should have had the gun aimed at him announcing that he does not remember much.
Prosecutors Kristin Andersson and Jonas Fjellström began by trying to ask a few questions, but when the answers became short-lived, it resulted in a six-hour interrogation being played instead.
The witness is seen as a leader
During questioning, the witness did not point out any shooters, but gave detailed information about what happened at the scene.
Among other things, that the person who shot came in a car with the woman, and other details that the prosecutor wants to present to the court.
According to information to SVT Nyheter Norrbotten, the witness is seen as "a bit of a leader" for his circle of acquaintances where several people who were at the scene are included.
The prosecutor does not comment on that but says in the clip above that there is a risk that more people will not remember now.
Drops in evidential value
In Swedish courts, the principle of oral procedure applies, which means that all evidence and other material must be presented orally at main hearings.
Recorded interrogations are seen to have lower evidential value
, which you can hear the prosecutor tell about in the clip above.
