English: ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF NORWEGIAN CAPTION:

Minister of Justice, Sverre Parelius Riisnæs, the SS-soldier with the Iron Cross, the high-ranking officer of the Germanic SS, the man who handed down death sentences and even took part in the executions of his victims- this is what he looks like now. The court case against him started on 3 June [1947]. When Riisnæs was to be placed in the dock to answer for his acts, he was so scared that he amidst bestial moaning and screams had to be carried out of the court room.

When judge Cappelen opened the court proceedings the judge’s voice was completely drowned by Riisnæs’s loud and intense screaming so the defendant was carried out. He was in a dishevelled state; his hair was hanging down covering his closed eyes, his mouth twisted. The next day the moaning and screaming Mr. Riisnæs was carried into the court room. After a short while, he once again had to be removed- it was pointless to have him there. On the condition that Mr. Riisnæs was informed about the examination of witnesses and the course of the court proceedings the judge ruled that the case could continue without the defendant being present.
Deutsch: DEUTSCHE ÜBERSETZUNG VOM NORWEGISCHEN TEXT:

Justizminister Sverre Parelius Riisnæs, der SS-Soldat mit dem Eisernen Kreuz, der höhere Offizier des germanischen SS, der Mann der jede Menge Todesurteile beantragte und selber bei den Hinrichtungen seiner Opfer teilnahm- so sieht er jetzt aus. Als die Gerichtsverhandlungen am 3. Juni [1947] anfingen, mit Riisnæs auf der Anklagebank um sich für seine Taten zu verantworten, hatte er so viel Angst, daß man ihn unter Stöhnen und tierischem Schreien in den Gerichtssaal tragen musste. Als Gerichtsvorsitzender Cappelen die Sitzung für eröffnet erklärte, wurde das anhaltende Schreien so laut und intensiv, daß es die Stimme des Gerichtsvorsitzenden vollkommen übertäubte. Riisnæs wurde aus dem Gerichtssaal getragen. Die Haare hingen ihm in den geschlossenen Augen, seine Kleidung war in Unordnung, sein Mund verzerrt.

Am nächsten Tag wurde Riisnæs, stöhnend und schreiend, nochmals in den Gerichtssaal getragen, nur um kurz danach davon entfernt zu werden. Es hatte keinen Sinn ihn bei den Verhandlungen zu haben. Unter der Voraussetzung, daß Riisnæs über die Aussagen der Zeugen und den Gang der Verhandlungen informiert wurde, hat der Gerichtsvorsitzende entschieden, daß die Verhandlungen ohne Riisnæs fortsetzen konnten.
