Court allows witness testimony from a person with a prior criminal record under Danish law.

The Vestre Landsret upheld the district court's decision permitting a defendant with a prior criminal record to testify as a witness. The prosecution argued the defendant's history made them unreliable, while the defense contended their credibility should be assessed by the jury rather than barred outright. The court ruled that the statutory provisions do not prohibit such testimony, leaving the assessment of credibility to the fact-finding body.
