the Case has caused a stir in recent days, and politicians on the strip is up in arms. In debatprogrammet P1 Debate said ældrerådmand Jette Skive (DF) said on Wednesday that the municipality could not withdraw the case.

The interpretation rejects Peter Lambert well, but the municipality's attorneys maintain.

- It is true that, in general, can always raise a case again. But not this case, because the top of it procedural is an administrative duty to act and protect an occupant against the violation, it is to be filmed and shown in a private situation.

Peter Lambert maintains, however, its assessment of the case, which leaves it up to the politicians what they want to do.

In the last week imposed the Vestre Landsret a protective order, which meant that TV2 may not publish the hidden footage from the nursing home.

Extra Leaf, however, showed parts of the footage, because the unworthy treatment of the elderly, are in the public interest, and because children and granddaughter, who is a guardian, would have the footage forward. The media is blurry, not the people.

on Wednesday included the Ekstra Bladet and TV2 a settlement, which allowed the newspaper to show the controversial video clip, which shows plejepersonalets handling of a 90-year-old demented woman at the nursing home Kongsgården in Aarhus.

It is TV2, which has been responsible for making the recordings, but the tv station has even been banned from showing the clip.
