The drama. November 1982, the police come on the track of robbery, when a Norwegian exchanges money from the Drammensranet in a bank in Switzerland, without hiding his identity. The man is Martin Pedersen, - an art dealer from Nøtterøy. At once, the police thus clarify as many as 19 robberies. The dividend from the drama robbery was approx. NOK 4.5 million. The other robberies gave approx. NOK 2.2 million. The first 14 robberies performed Pedersen alone. On the last he had aides. His assistant during the Drammensranet was hairdresser Bjørn Alstad from Tønsberg. In early December, he makes the startling claim - that Pedersen was planning to abduct inheritance prince Haakon Magnus. Pedersen denies this. The picture: From the trial in Drammen, June 1982.
