So large is the scope of a case in which a 34-year-old man from Bramming is charged with, among other things, attempted rape and sexual intercourse other than intercourse.
He is also charged with unlawful coercion, indecency and possession of child pornography.
The case against the man has begun today at the Court in Esbjerg. The reading of the 240 charges alone is expected to take three hours.
According to the prosecution , the case is so extensive that it fills 22 ring binders, says Henning Fuglsang, who is a special prosecutor at the South and Southern Jutland Police.

According to the indictment, the accused contacted the boys via the social media Snapchat .
Here he has pretended to be a girl of the same age , and in that way got several of the boys to send intimate pictures and videos of themselves.
Denies guilt – except child pornography charge

The court in Esbjerg has been forced to rent a room in a nearby building, writes Ritzau.
