“The judgment in mutåtalet against Teliacheferna no fun reading for the prosecutor,”
“The acquittal judgment of the mutåtalade Teliadirektörerna may not be fun reading for the prosecutor.”
“the Evidence fell namely together like a house of cards.”
“A common misunderstanding is that the prosecutors have been wrong if a person is freed. This is not the case.”
“of Evidence is not and cannot be an exact science, and that the prosecutor and the court have different perceptions, are not more strange than that the district court and the court of appeal can land in different conclusions.”
“With that said can’t today’s verdict in the Stockholm district court to belong to the most fun the seasoned prosecutor Gunnar Stetler has read.”
“the Court notes that it”
“A translation into English that is more comprehensible to others than juristnördar can’t be done without the background first explained.”
“Telia wanted to enter in the Uzbek moderately developed and fast-growing telecommunications sector and turned to the diktatorsdottern the First Karimova, a pop singer who had a finger dipped in every syltburk in the country that carried the money.”
“Closest to the unlikely three billion to Telia have paid to this enterprising woman.”
“the Problem, considers the district court, is that it is not proven that Karimova had a position in the telecom industry. Therefore, she is not one of the persons who, according to former Swedish law, could be held liable for bribery.”
“the Legislature has simply considered that there is much to crime to pay out the money in order to achieve the benefits to a person who can’t fix to mutan really lead to anything.”
“the Indictment falls with the other words together already at square one. In addition, the nuts, the court over to it here and there in the investigation, there are gaps and that the concreteness of what they suspected to have done is missing.”
“Several years of investigation and a trial that has been going on for over six months, resulting thus in the three treat within Telia is freed. It smells undeniably fiasco.”
“But the prosecutor has not had it easy. Economic crime is not simple. Financial crime with international ramifications is even more difficult. And when the people who claimed to be included in the crime rate are close relatives to corrupt dictators and not going to interrogate at will hill slightly less troublesome than Mount Everest’s south-eastern point.”
“Add a law on the mutområdet that at the time of the alleged crime was hopeless (it has gotten better, but still leaves a lot to be desired).”
“in Short, it is possible to think of easier and any more grateful work than to be a prosecutor in this case.”
“It remains to be seen if the judgment is challenged. My tip is so not going to happen.”
“Very strange in this soup. Eye-catching is, for example, that while the directors refuse so have Telia admitted that bribes were paid in connection with the company’s establishment in Uzbekistan.”
“It took place in connection with a fine of eight billion paid to u.s. and Dutch authorities.”
“But it is, strictly speaking, a completely different story.”
