The accused are between the ages of 16 and 18 and, according to Aftenbladet, have been charged under section 299 of the Criminal Code, compared to section 301. They face prison terms of ten and 21 years respectively.
Several seizures and witness interviews have been made in the case. The accused were interrogated for several hours on Monday, but the interrogations are not finished.
– He does not admit criminal guilt for what he has been charged with, says Stian Kristensen, defense attorney for one of the defendants in the case, to Aftenbladet.
Neither do the other two boys admit criminal guilt.
The two girls have been interviewed at the children’s home in Stavanger and are being followed up from there. The orphanage takes care of children and young people when it is suspected that they may be exposed to, or witness to, violence or sexual abuse.
