VG, Dagbladet and Nettavisen first reported the change.

According to Nettavisen, the customer is not aware of this charge.

The man in his 30s was released after questioning him on Saturday.

At Kripos

The defendant was questioned at Kripos in Brynseng in Oslo on Saturday. Svensson tells NTB that he is satisfied with the launch.

– He will try to get home and relax, says the defender.

The accused man in his 30s has a relationship with Tom Hagen, and police have stated that “they are familiar with the man’s IT and cryptocurrency experience.”

He, like Tom Hagen, was first charged with Section 275 of the Penal Code for having taken his life or assisted by Anne-Elisabeth Hagen.

The garden was left without custody on Friday after the prosecutor’s appeal was rejected by the Supreme Court’s Appeals Committee.

Must have asked for cryptocurrency

In a web forum that VG has tracked, the accused man in his 30s raises the issue of untraceable cryptocurrency and places it in the context of criminal acts, including kidnapping.

In connection with the disappearance of Anne-Elisabeth Hagen, a claim by alleged hijackers of € 9 million in ransom was paid in the monero crypto currency.

Attorney General Kirsti Guttormsen confirms to NRK that the police investigative team wanted to arrest Tom Hagen when he was released from Oslo prison on Friday afternoon. Did not approve of the State Attorney.

search warrants

According to NRK, the police have decided on a third-party transaction for the Hagen family home at Sloraveien 4 in Lørenskog and a property in Kvitfjell.

– We will consider the legality of this. Then we have to consider what to do next, Hagen’s defense attorney Svein Holden tells NTB.

Due to the records, the police do not allow Hagen to move into his home.

– He wants to move home and use the cabin, says the defender.
