On Tuesday, the trial against the two Swedish men in their 20s who have been charged, suspected of having placed an explosive charge that detonated outside a residence in Drøbak in the municipality of Frogn south of Oslo in Norway on the night of 24 October 2023, reports Nettavisen.

None of the six people who were in the house when the bomb exploded were injured, but one or more of them could have died in connection with the incident, according to the indictment.

One of the men denies the crime and the other, who was a teenager at the time, has admitted to placing the bomb.

A woman in her 30s, also from Sweden, is charged with having helped the men to flee after the explosion, despite knowing that they had committed a criminal act.
