– Five people have been arrested and charged with deprivation of liberty, and there are three offended in the case, says police lawyer Morten Formo.
They are from the 20s to the 40s.
On Tuesday, the police had an armed action for several hours in the Kristiansand area. Helicopter and the Delta group from Oslo assisted in the action.
Agder police received a report Tuesday at 09:24 that a person was possibly taken away in a car against his will.
After several hours, the police announced in a press release that three people were charged and that it was an insult.
The case has now grown to eight people involved.

Reinstatement?
Formo will not say what the deprivation of liberty is about, but the five charges have been known to the police since before.
– When we are notified of a possible deprivation of liberty, it is serious.
– Is it a resettlement?
– It’s early in the investigation, so I can’t say anything about it now, says Formo.
It will not say what they were previously convicted of.
Yesterday, NRK was informed that Delta was called because it was a dangerous environment where weapons could be involved. Drugs can also be a motive, according to what NRK knows.
The five suspects were not together when police arrested them.
– We arrest people in different places.
The police helicopter flew over Kristiansand and Vennesla for several hours and measures were taken against various directions. Large armed forces were deployed.
Be questioned
Police will question the defendants today, but it is not known whether they will be taken into custody today.
– We must decide whether they should be presented for custody later.
The three victims have also been questioned.
– Have you implemented any security measures in relation to them?
– No, we don’t.
Around the neighboring houses
At Grim in Kristiansand, a woman called the police on the door and they borrowed her living room to spy on the neighboring apartment.
– The policeman sat here for an hour and communicated using codes.

She says it was quite scary, because she knew through the media that an armed hostage operation was taking place.
Police also took action against a home in Vennesla, but it is unclear if anyone was arrested there.
