You suspect you may have received help
Madsen was presented for custody in court Wednesday after the attempted escape from Herstedsvester prison, where he is serving a life sentence for the murder of journalist Kim Wall.
The Glostrup court decided that the court hearing should be held behind closed doors because it is suspected that the escape is planned in collaboration with one or more people.
He is also accused of threatening a prison official with a bomb. Outside the prison, he is also said to have threatened the prison officer with an object resembling a gun.
Madsen was only on the run for five minutes, police said Tuesday. No traces of explosives were found on the belt, and he is said to have dropped a copy of the weapon just before the police were to arrest him.
