It's the users that do and they square measure physically placeable group. They call themselves calumniation like King Kong," Samuelsson told the court.
"According to judicial operation, the accusations mustiness be against an somebody and here mustiness be a close tie between the perpetrators of a evildoing and those United Nations agency square measure assisting. This tie has not been shown. The functionary mustiness show that Carl Lundström personally has interacted with the selfish person King Kong, United Nations agency Gregorian calendar month precise well be remuneration in the jungles of Asian nation," the professional added.
