The security director at the government offices states in an interrogation that the documents were returned to Landerholm, which he himself does not want to acknowledge.
"He claims that he has not received them. But I do not have them. I returned them to him afterwards," says the security director in an interrogation with Säpo in February this year.
Landerholm says in the interrogation that he has no idea where the documents, which according to the indictment concern matters of confidential nature "whose disclosure to a foreign power may harm Sweden's security", are today.
"As for the current documents, I have never seen them, since March 13 (2023). So never," he says.
Turbulent time
After the media attention surrounding the forgotten documents, he has thought carefully about this, he says.
"Then I recapitulated, I never got them back after the investigation. That means I can say with 100 percent certainty that after that, I definitely did not get them back," he says in the interrogation held on February 21 this year.
In the interrogation, he also describes that spring 2023 was a turbulent time, and that he has since realized that the workload at the time was "completely crazy".
"In retrospect, I realized that the work period was of a – had an extremely high workload, which I had never experienced before," he says.
Chief Prosecutor Per Lindqvist, who submitted the indictment against Henrik Landerholm together with colleague Mats Ljungqvist on Tuesday, does not want to answer whether they know where the documents have gone.
We cannot comment on that, says Lindqvist to TT.
Unlocked cabinet
The investigation also includes different information about how many documents Landerholm left behind in his room, and which were later found by a cleaner in an unlocked valuables cabinet.
The CEO of the conference hotel that handled the forgotten documents describes it in the interrogation as a two-centimeter thick bundle. When they were later returned to the government offices, it is described as only a few pages.
We have a fairly clear understanding of how many papers there are and what information they contain. I know that there are some different information about this, but I think we have a fairly clear picture, says Per Lindqvist.
