The Vestre Landsrat upheld the lower court's decision regarding the suspect's pre-trial detention. The suspect argued that continued detention was unnecessary given the lack of new evidence, while the prosecution maintained the risk of flight and obstruction of justice. The court found the original grounds for detention still valid and sufficient to justify the measure.
