– The police fabricated Treholt-proofs

The claim was made in the book “Forfalskningen – Politiets løgn i Treholt-saken (falsification – Police lie in Treholt case)”. Geir Selvik Malthe-Sørenssen has written the book with journalist Kjetil Bortelid Maeland. Malthe-Sørenssen told they have irrefutable evidence about that monetary proof which was one of the most crucial evidence for the espionage conviction of 20 years in prison of Arne Treholt, was fabricated by the police.

– Police cheated with money-proof. We have provided irrefutable proof documented with photos. The evidence found in Treholt's apartment before he was arrested, in fact, must have been taken after Treholt was arrested, said Malthe-Sørenssen.
