Van was smækfyldt with traces of explosives

The car, as the two bombetiltalte Swedish men drove to Denmark in 6. august last year, turned out to be smækfyldt with traces of explosives.

It has come forward in the course of the morning by the Copenhagen city Court, where the two men on the 23 and 24 years refuses to commit to have nothing to do with the explosion in front of the tax administration that evening.

For when the Danish police a few days later got the car handed over from the Swedish authorities, were taken 25 samples at random points in the Citroën Berlingo, as the two men drove in during their trip to Copenhagen.

23 of the samples showed traces of eksplosiverne nitroglycerin, ammonium nitrate and egdn.

- I can not explain, said the 23-year-old, when the prosecutor asked for the case.

The 23-year-old acknowledged that he that evening drove with his 24-year-old buddy to Copenhagen. Countless images and video sequences from overvågningskamereaer showing their route from Øresundstunnellen of Amager, Knippelsbro and to Østerbro, where tax administration is housed at Nordhavn Station.

And also the trip back - this time, over H. C. Andersen Boulevard and Langebro - is quite well documented.

The 23-year-old explained already under grundlovsforhøret that they had plans to drive to Copenhagen to have fun - including a visit to Christiania.

But it was never for anything. This was due to the 24-year-old along the way had a telephone conversation with an acquaintance. And he would, therefore, visit the acquaintances instead.

An image from a surveillance camera close to the tax administration shows that the 23-year-old park your car. The page increases the 24-year-old out of the car. He takes something that, according to the prosecutor's presentation is reminiscent of a pot with him.

On the overvågningsbilleder see it, according to the prosecutor, too, there can be seen a wire. Since the 24-year-old returns some minutes later, he wears no longer on the pot.

The 23-year-old, who until his arrest worked in his father's pizzeria, told this morning in his testimony, that he was so busy looking at his mobile that he didn't noticed that his friend seemed to take something out of the car.

in Addition, he rejects also to have heard a bang, while the friend was away.

instead he told in the court that he got the message that the friend's acquaintances were not at home, and that, therefore, he had to run back to Sweden.

the Police investigation has mainly been about to browse the video surveillance, explained the prosecutor, during his presentation. Quickly it became clear that the varebilen was interesting.

It had a white license plate, where the first overvågningsbilleder, as the police secured was not possible to read the license plate.

But because the white number plates on a van is unusual in Denmark, chose the police investigators to look for Swedish cars on overvågningsbilleder at the Link. There was a match on a car that came to Denmark shortly before the explosion, and drove out of Denmark again shortly after.

Since approached the police to the telecoms companies in order to output the Swedish phone numbers logged on the Danish telecom masts along the route, as the police believed that the swedes drove along.

On the way, we managed to find the 23-year-old, residing in Malmö-area and was the owner of that mobile phone number.

Several places in the Malmö area was searched, and it was here that they found both the mobile phone and varebilen.

The 23-year-old was arrested during the action, while his classmate turned out to be traveled to Lebanon. The police found out during a wiretap of the 23-year-old.

An international arrest warrant was sent out on the 24-year-old, who even volunteered for the Danish police some weeks later.

No one got anything during the explosion at the Excise, which, however, happened the extensive damage, there are made up to approximately 6.2 million dollars.

the Prosecutor made during his presentation advised that we intend to use a clause in the criminal code for the first time in the Danish administration of justice. It is a paragraph, which in principle can increase the strafsanktionen by up to half, because the threat has the nature of terrorist activity.

It is expected that the falling judgment 7. July.
