Tranby murder: Some crucial hours in Lier – Aftenposten

Tranby murder: Some crucial hours in Lier – Aftenposten

Frontline CEO Per Gunnar Asheim was found dead in his wife burnt BMW convertible in the morning on Wednesday 27 March 2013. The car stood in a parking lot in Tranby Lier. Asheim sat in the passenger seat.

His 53 years old wife claims determined that she saw a trace of her husband after 23 GMT Monday before.

The prosecutor believes that she killed him sometime in the period from Tuesday to Wednesday morning.

Evidence for what spouses undertook from Monday evening to Wednesday morning, is therefore crucial for the outcome of the case. Either defendant convicted, or so she must be acquitted because the evidence did not hold.

Some other solution is not. Both prosecutors and defense lawyers precludes an unknown third party can stand behind the death. Defenders believes that Asheim took his own life and that the defendant therefore is innocent.



Can with diesel

The defendant has in detail explained what she did in that time period – an explanation prosecutors claim is fabricated on entirely essential points.

Several incidents defendant tells, controllable in retrospect. The weakest link in her explanation is why she bought a petrol can and filled it with diesel.

What should she gasoline jug? What should she with diesel?

Prosecutor Trude Sparre ask and ask, more and more detailed. The defendant is on his: It was really her husband who was buying gasoline jug. He should use it to the snow thrower. But he forgot it; therefore she bought jug Tuesday in the current week. Later the same day she filled it with diesel.

Snowthrower does not diesel but on gasoline. The defendant says that she has never used snowblower, she did not know what kind of fuel it went on – and took sadly mistaken when she bought diesel.

The full jug she placed in the garage. It has subsequently not been finding. The defendant does not know where it has gone.

In the burnt car, police found traces of diesel. It was used to instigators fire.

Who took BMW?

How BMW one landed in the parking lot in Tranby, has not accused the slightest idea. She even drove the car into the garage on Monday evening. On Wednesday morning, she discovered that it was gone.

Soon after called the police and told that her car was on fire. She immediately took family’s second car and drove to the place.

– It was a horrific sight that met me, she said from the witness box. She was convinced that her husband had set fire to her car. She called him; you fucking asshole, she said to her husband’s voice.

The court must consider whether the call was part of a well planned murder – or whether it was a natural reaction after finding his car burned out.

Only later told police her that it put a dead person in the passenger seat.

In the 22 months that have passed, she has been in police custody.
