Several suspicious men of «Iranian-Iraqi appearance» were observed as they
photographed and filmed the opening of the tunnel Romeriksporten and the
underframe of one of the trains, stated Jørn Holme, head of PST, at a
national security conference at Sola Tuesday.
According to Norwegian paper VG, the suspicious men were observed by the
opening of the tunnel and at a train at the airport in end of April of this
year.
«The suspicious men were observed April 27 and 29,» Holme said. «They had to
climb over a fence in order to get down to the track to check the underframe
of the train. The other persons were observed at the tunnel opening.»
PST could not inform whether or not these were people with residence in
Norway or if they were arrested and questioned.
Holme stressed that the actions in themselves are not a legal offence and
that they may be «completely trustworthy.» But Holme said that the actions
raise suspicion and stressed how important it is to check such incidents.
