062 - Which suspects have already resigned?

In February 2022, I made a list of suspects,

government officials involved in the Nordstream affair:

 

I divided them into two groups.

1. British government officials who are suspected of planning, preparation, execution. Government, security and military subgroups.

2. Non UK officials who are responsible of covering up

 

Later I filed several legal criminal cases.

Note: List is being updated with new resignations, includes prediction.

Nordstream affair Summary

 

Dear reader,

This blog is a private, detailed, and independent in-depth investigation into the Nord Stream affair.

The investigation aims to delve into the incident's origins, motives, methods, and political game surrounding the affair. It emphasizes the use of legally obtained public domain data.

The style offers readers to form independently their own opinions about what happened and why.

The blog posts focus on the chronology of official statements, explores Nord Stream incident from different points of view in several timelines and explores definitions, and events related to sanctions.

The investigation involves analysing evidence, including the possibility of involvement by various governments and parties, such as Russia, the United States or Ukraine.

It also explores political involvement of other countries such as Switzerland, Norway, Denmark, or Belgium.

Using best practices of criminal profiling it identifies the UK government as the prime suspect of the Nordstream affair based on different types of evidence. It eliminates other possible perpetrators through careful crosscheck of available data.

After identifying the UK government as the main suspect the blog looks at evidence of UK conducting preparations to the event, warnings, changing its security structures or it looks into the Nordstream related statements and events in UK under Boris Johnson and Liz Truss and looks at the post Brexit Britain in relation to Russian energy exports.

The investigation raises questions about the attack on the Nord Stream energy infrastructure and explores possible primary, secondary and other motives or legal aspects the UK could have to target the EU's key energy infrastructure. Was it a false flag? Were there more attacks planned? What was the role of JEF?

It seeks to shed light on the legal definitions and severity of the attack and the geopolitical context.

It also explores shaping of the narrative that it was the “sabotage” and not a “terrorist act”. The author describes based on small indices the possible coverup of inconvenient truth by EU governments on the unofficial Prague summit  shortly after the event happened and how the UK possibly appeased other states like France not to disclose who was the perpetrator. It extrapolates how several top individuals could have known about the impending attack but have not for political or other reasons acted on such information.

The blog highlights the significance of impartial and professional inquiries to establish facts and accountability regarding the sabotage. It explores other hypothesis such as Hersh´s claim about BALTOPS and possibly debunks it here, here and here.

The blog author stresses the importance of uncovering the truth and ensuring accountability. As a result of his work several criminal investigations were submitted. He reflects on the news released by Swedish prosecutor.                                                                                             

Version 1.

A picture version:

I plan to improve this into more understandable description and shorter claim. In time.

060 - Open letter to journalists

Dear journalists,
It's been another busy week

for all of you who cover this affair...

...it is not just a crime, it is a very big scandal.
A moment in European history which changes the future.

There is a lots of data I have collected, some of it looks like a key evidence.

Publish and you should put a pressure to answer questions

about things I have found out about the crimes of Nordstream affair.

Dear ...... [journalists],

I am the author of the self funded independent investigation reported on a blog I created for that case: https://nordstreambymortymer.blogspot.com/ 

I tried to contact you on Twitter/X but got no response so far.

Attached I am sending you a sample of data I collected. These could be considered leads, a circumstantial evidence, some of them even pointing to direct evidence, some could be even considered a "smoking gun" if someone digs further, and confirms suspicious behaviour.

While most investigative journalists searched the blast location I started to probe and investigate governments as it was clear one of them has signed the mission to take out the our #1 key energy infrastructure. I am not a reporter so I ask you for a help to validate, research, examine further and bring the focus of public into questioning also other less known aspects of the multifaceted crime. I built the case on context and inferences following best investigative practices, I used criminal profiling, other standard tools and techniques - here is a short summary.

Here I tried to summarize unanswered questions which journalists should be asking but are not.

I am aware that my blog is hard to read, it contains a lot of data which is analysed, categorized, sorted. It follows my progress in investigation so topics are mixed. It may be difficult to go through as it is so massive. I made it for the investigation, not to get followers or because I desire to be famous.

Just to be clear, I am NOT proposing some conspiracy theory here. I am presenting you a well founded fact based hypothesis that nobody else but a small group within the UK government and military was behind: Truss, Johnson, Cleverly, Radakin, Wallace and few others. Events and statements, dataset I collected hint to a sequence that some from this group have decided already in January/February 2022 that if Russia enters in war with Ukraine, the conflict will enable an attack on the Nordstream pipelines which are considered by the UK a strategic threat to their security. If the UK was the perpetrator then the main responsibility lies on the head of UK military which is Liz Truss. Here is data about her and Nordstream. It is a subset of another larger post about Britain´s politicians vs Nordstream - here. Please look at the UK´s energy and security policy papers as they changed through 2022. Note also that shortly after the attack the UK became, after 44 years, net energy exporter. The UK after Brexit had to leave the  EU internal energy market which was a disaster for its competitiveness. The UK needed higher oil prices to activate alternative energy sources and open North Sea (this is from UK energy security), their companies left Russia among first. There are other motives, objectives which I explored as well, for example the Global Britain policy. After Brexit the UK lost all possibilities, including legal how to stop Nordstream. The USA had the "Merkel-Biden" deal which was re-confirmed by Scholz later. 

The Russia as a suspect has been excluded in several rounds.

The USA has been also excluded from the perpetrators.

Norway could be ruled out as well. I made an overview here.

Seems France has been convinced not to disclose who has done it in Prague.

I read your article pointing to the Ukraine. Could there be some connection between UK and Ukraine?

Of course, see here. The legal liability is not valid in two cases: Self-sabotage and Armed conflict.

It is possible that the execution itself, the last stage of the mission, has been done by individuals belonging to other nation.

But that is up to investigators, they are the small fish, they are not the "government officials" who bear the responsibility, they followed orders.

Anyone can extrapolate about who will pay the insurance based on who is found guilty. 

It could even be Germany and allies IF it is found out that they learned from the UK about it before it happened (Stoltenberg, Michel, Leyen, Blinken, Biden) but they have deliberately let the attack to happen - Negligence or Failure to act, Aiding and Abetting, Misconduct in public office, Obstruction of justice. Note that this case COULD bring general not personal responsibility on the whole EU. The case is a massive miscalculation, tragic mess which nobody wants to touch as there are many worms in this can.

I wish to stay anonymous as to protect my family.

I trust in your professionality, confidentiality and I believe you will not share this info further without my permission as truth could be dangerous.

Are you interested in the data I have collected?

Would you like to hear my take about the topic?

I have not signed rights with anyone yet.

Are you interested in collaboration?

Best regards,

Mortymer001

059 - I filed several Criminal cases and investigations

Yes, the law is incredibly important in society. It serves as a framework of rules and regulations that govern behavior, maintain order, protect individual rights, and promote justice. To make human rights a reality, they have to be protected through laws. Nobody, not even Jens Stoltenberg, Leyen, Michel or Blinken and Biden can be above law... Nobody!

1. In Germany the right investigator I assumed was:
                                           "Federal Criminal Police Office"

The Federal Criminal Police Office is Germany’s central criminal investigation agency. It coordinates federal and state cooperation in police investigations. There is a link where to file cases:

 Page: Contact the public enquiry service

Hello,

Based on my private investigation and the public data I collected, sorted and analysed the UK is most likely behind the Nordstream affair:

https://nordstreambymortymer.blogspot.com/

My hypothesis states clearly that there are 2 crimes:

1. The actual act by a UK government who went rogue and planned, executed the mission.

2. The "cover-up" by top EU politicians 

- Few even learned about it a week before but did not stop the act

- EU top politicians decided jointly afterwards to keep the suspect secret for political reasons.

It is a mess, a scandal. Please investigate the circumstantial, video, audio, documentary, character, and other types of evidence I listed.

There is tons of supporting evidence on my blog made to report the investigation - timelines, public announcements, speeches, official energy, foreign, economic strategies, analysis, all show that the UK was actively preparing policies which would benefit UK after the attack on key European energy infrastructure. The set of data I collected show that the UK was behind the Nordstream affair.

If you need help let me know.

I may be wrong on several details, misunderstand other but the sheer set of collected data points directly to the UK government.

There are several findings which could potentially be "smoking guns" but I have no authority nor I am the one who should be confirming, investigating further. 

The truth is there, too many people know already anyway so I hope you will finally expose those criminals behind it. However painful the truth is there is no other way around but releasing what happened.

Best,

Update 02 August 2022 - The case can not be processed by FCPO, I got advise to contact to the investigator who handles the case (see #4).

2. The ICC - The International Criminal Court

I filed a criminal case against UK and Leyen, Michel and UK for this suspected crime - here, here

3. The EPPO - The independent public prosecution office of the EU

I filed a criminal case against Leyen and Michel for this suspected crime - here, here

4. The GER Attorney General at the Federal Court of Justice

The FCPO (1) answered me to contact directly the German criminal investigator handling the Nordstream case:

Der Generalbundesanwalt führt die Ermittlungen zur "Nordstream Affäre". ich bitte Sie, sich in Ihrer Angelegenheit an den Generalbundesanwalt zu wenden. Unter dem folgenden Link finden Sie die Kontaktdaten: link

[The Attorney General is investigating the "Nord Stream Affair". I ask you to contact the Federal Public Prosecutor General in your matter. You can find the contact details under the following link: here]

See Peter Frank 

-> And so I did filed a case here.

Federal Public Prosecutor General Peter Frank and Deputy Federal Public Prosecutor General Lars Otte. 

...so far no response from 2, 3, 4 other than that they received it.

Lets watch!

5. The GER Bundeskriminalamt (BKA) - General contact enquiry - here.

...

Should I file more reports to investigate?

What comes to my mind is:

5. In SWE? Whom to contact?

7. In DK? Whom to contact?

8. Does EU have some body to investigate? In past it was said that they leave local investigators which have the legal responsibility due to blows happened in DK, SWE territorial zones.  See here.

9. A case against corrupt EU top officials as each EU state top politicians now know yet they cover up? See here.

10. How to report against NATO?

Is there any lawyer who could help or advise? Any ideas?

Please leave comment or contact me on twitter.

Warning: If you are reading this post and you are from some organization which helps to cover up the crime, pay attention, Karma works, the "cat is out of the bag" anyway, too many people already know who did it and who is helping to cover it up, sooner or later the public will learn as well.

058 - Investigations, Sweden: Mats Ljungqvist - the Swedish investigator

This post explores official statements by Mats Ljungqvist, the main Swedish prosecutor investigating the Nordstream Affair, and how his statements relate to my own private independent investigation. 

I. Who was in SWE government on 26/09/2022? 

Post listing top SWE government official is here.

II. What did SWE officials say shortly after the incident? 

Post exploring government official statements is here.

 

III. News about the SWE investigation

After few not important posts things started to be more interesting...

18 November 2022 - Sweden confirms Nord Stream pipeline sabotage: prosecutor

Swedish officials confirmed Friday that the September blasts which destroyed sections of the Nord Stream pipelines carrying natural gas from Russia to Germany under the Baltic Sea were acts of sabotage.

[M: To differentiate and define what type of the crime it is is a tricky business and depend on knowing tho has done the crime, what were objectives and what damage and to whom it was done, what the mission was supposed to achieve. It is impossible to state with certainty that it was a "sabotage" if case is not processed by lawyers. A post dealing with legal aspects is here and here.]

“The analyzes conducted found traces of explosives on several foreign objects” found at the sites of the blasts, prosecutor Mats Ljungqvist who is leading the preliminary investigation said in a statement.

Ljungqvist added that technical analyzes were continuing in order to “draw more reliable conclusions regarding the incident.”

Sweden’s Prosecution Authority said that the “continued investigation will show if anyone can be formally suspected of a crime.”

[M: When someone is formally suspected of a crime, they might become the subject of an official investigation.]

Investigators had already said that preliminary inspections had reinforced suspicions of sabotage. 

[M: As I stated the preliminary investigation without knowing who has done it and why could not define that it is a "sabotage". Note that IF the case was defined from the beginning as a "terrorist attack against key EU infrasru] 

3 March 2023 - Intelligence Suggests Pro-Ukrainian Group Sabotaged Pipelines, U.S. Officials Say

Mats Ljungqvist, a senior prosecutor leading Sweden’s investigation, told The New York Times late last month that his country’s hunt for the perpetrators was continuing.

“It’s my job to find those who blew up Nord Stream. To help me, I have our country’s Security Service,” Mr. Ljungqvist said. “Do I think it was Russia that blew up Nord Stream? I never thought so. It’s not logical. But as in the case of a murder, you have to be open to all possibilities.”

8 March 2023 - German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius warned...

... against reaching premature conclusions on who was responsible for blowing up the Nord Stream pipelines, suggesting the attack could also have been a ‘false flag’ operation to blame Ukraine

[M: Note that Russia has excluded Ukraine in the very beginning and that Ukraine was blaming Russia to "Terrorist Attack" definition in of the event compared to the "Sabotage" which hints that it was indeed not Ukraine. Also Ukraine does not have access to Baltic Sea, and neither Poland nor Germany have rose any alarm over their land being used for attack - a failure of anti-terrorist units to detect large amount of explosives. In theory there is a possibility that Ukrainian leadership "knew" about the operation beforehand but were not the prime perpetrator. List of government officials who are suspects here. The main suspect is UK - here. Russia blamed Anglo-Saxons which is same conclusion as this investigation found out.] 

22 February 2023 - Swedes urge patience and calm in Nord Stream blast probe

Mats Ljungqvist, the prosecutor in charge, is doing it "with help from the Swedish police, the Swedish security service and other authorities. If needed, the prosecutor can request help, with submarines and whatnot," he said.

When asked if Ljungqvist can be trusted to do it free from political interference given Russia's accusations, the spokeswoman cited Sweden's credentials on transparency and rule of law.

"The prosecution authority is an independent body," he said.

"The government can issue general regulations to the [independent] authorities but, according to the [Swedish] constitution, must not give directions in everyday matters," he added.

"When an investigation is completed and the prosecutor decides to indict, everything in the investigation becomes public," the spokeswoman also said.

"There are exceptions though — information that concerns the security of Sweden" she said.

[M: The security note is a hint that conclusions may be made secret - this means an influential member of NATO was behind.] 

"We have already conducted an on-site forensic search, with support of research vessels. Our investigations are ongoing and I cannot predict when they will be finalised," a spokeswoman for the German Federal Prosecutor's Office said.

The Danish probe into explosions in Denmark's maritime area is being done by Copenhagen police with the help of the Danish Defence Forces and the Danish Security and Intelligence Service (PET).

PET is handling media queries and saying little, however.

"The investigation is still ongoing and we usually don't comment," it said. 

It is unclear what investigations Russia has carried out, but last October it also blamed the British navy for blowing up Nord Stream. 

[M: A lot of data point to the UK Navy mission - here, here and here. There are more posts which are related to the UK being prime suspect like e.g. here or here. Suspects post is here] 

6 April 2023 - Prosecutors are investigating whether Sweden is involved in the Nord Stream sabotage

Chamber prosecutor Mats Ljungqvist tells TV4 Nyheterna that it will be difficult to pinpoint exactly who or who are behind the detonations, even if there are only a few suspects left.

We are in a situation where we have to accept that it will likely be difficult to pinpoint an actor behind this, he says. 

[M: It is politically difficult to day it was a NATO, with high probability UK government and where it originated. Anyway, full responsibility lies with top government officials representing a state, even if government changed the next one bears responsibility as well.] 

We want to rule out that Swedish ports, infrastructure or Swedes are involved, he tells TV4 Nyheterna.

"Working on being able to rule out or confirm that Sweden was used as a springboard"

[M: This is a very serious and valid reason. Sweden is part of the UK led JEF - Joint Expeditionary Force, a sub-NATO group which is not tied with articled on joint defence. This group was in high alert during and after the attack on the Nordstream and was ready to respond to any Russian retaliation. See here post about JEF - link. Sweden also explores connection with NATO "Ramstein Alloy Exercise" which took place on 26,27/09/2022 and was testing readiness for breach of Article 5. Members were Hungary, Germany, Czech Republic, Italy, Türkiye, the United Kingdom, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania... to "prepare for meaningful execution of NATO’s Deter and Defence concept in the Baltic region,” ..."The exercise series integrates more than two dozen fighter and support aircraft and NATO airborne early warning aircraft with NATO and national command and control centres. The realistic drills train Allied forces to deter and – if needed – defend against any aggression."]

[M: Another exercise was on 1st-12th of Oct 2022 - NATO ships participate in UK Exercise Joint Warrior, 11 000 personnel. The biannual exercise includes defence against simulated attacks above, on, and below the water – extending from Cape Wrath and the Hebrides in the north, to the North Sea and the western Channel.]    

[M: Another exercise was on 17th of October 2022 - UK and Swedish Air Forces conduct live air attack exercise Baltic Striker. The exercise was conducted as part of an effort to continue enhancing the JEF interoperability. The JEF is a rapid response force that can be deployed at a time of crisis, either with Nato or on its own. This means that the JEF is not bound by the Article 5 of joint defence. Question arises about how much NATO leaders knew who was behind at this point? Was it a false flag in which strategists expected certain Russian response? If that is the case the perpetrator was acting very irresponsibly.]   

Since the sabotage of the gas pipelines Nord Stream 1 and 2 last year, there has been speculation as to who or who are behind it. For example, the US, Russia and a pro-Ukraine group have all been singled out as guilty in various rounds. 

[M: There are several posts with data-sets which point to the same conclusions. Neither Russia nor USA have been involved - post, post, post and post.]   

The actors who carried out this attack were aware that they were leaving traces behind. They have left traces behind that point in slightly different directions, says Mats Ljungqvist.

[M: Plural points to to actors who tried to confuse but not conceal. This points to Western state which just needed a certain time not to be revealed in the critical post attack stage. This hints to political cover-up which is along Lunquist´s statement about .]

6 April 2023 - State actor involvement in Nord Stream pipeline attacks is 'main scenario', says Swedish investigator

There are certain companies that have certain special missions that mean they could, in theory, carry this out … We don’t rule out anything, but that it is a state actor who is directly or at least indirectly behind this is of course our absolute main scenario, given all the circumstances.

The people who did this have probably been aware that they would leave clues behind and probably took care so that the evidence would not point in one direction, but in several directions … That makes it difficult to clearly point to one actor.

[M: This hints that the investigation is checking relationship between several groups and who knew what at certain time. Then there is of course a deductive logic which points to just one perpetrator - the UK.] 

"I don't want to comment on any specific report but I can conclude that many of the hot theories can be easily ruled out based on what we know from the investigation," he said. 

[M: Same here, there are many Spin doctor theories, read here debunking them.]  

Chief Nord Stream investigator Mats Ljungqvist speaks:

 Same singular state-actor suspected on all sites.

Red herrings were planted

 "Choice of explosive" excludes many actors.  

Ljungqvist really emphasises last point. 

6 April 2023 - Prosecutors are investigating whether Sweden is involved in the Nord Stream sabotage

Since the sabotage of the gas pipelines Nord Stream 1 and 2 last year, there has been speculation as to who or who are behind it. For example, the US, Russia and a pro-Ukraine group have all been singled out as guilty in various rounds. 

[M: Simple deductive logic with factual evidence about which countries have "alibi" is a good start for beginning to focus in the investigation. I did that as the first step. If one excludes the impossible what is left, however improbable must be the truth]   

6 April 2023 - The perpetrators behind the Nord Stream sabotage remain unknown... The investigation is headed by a National Security Unit prosecutor.

7 April 2023 - State actor still main suspect behind Nord Stream sabotage, says investigato

The Swedish prosecutor, who was carrying the Nord Stream sabotage attack's investigation, said the “clear main scenario” was that there was the involvement of a state-sponsored group, as he expressed his doubt over theories that suggested an independent group's involvement in the pipeline blasts.

[M: The operation was a naval one. Key naval centre is in London, see post] 

Mats Ljungqvist, speaking to Reuters on Thursday, said that although theoretically there is a possibility of a non-state-backed plot, the kind of explosive used in the blasts ruled out a “large portion of actors.” 

Dismissing the theories around the Nord Stream pipeline blasts, the prosecutor called all the speculations "politically motivated". “The incident has obviously become an open arena for different influence attempts,” said Ljungqvist.

[M: Special post about spin theories here]  

“These speculations do not have an impact on the ongoing investigation, which is grounded in facts and the information which has emerged from analyses, crime scene investigations and collaboration with authorities in Sweden and other countries,” he added. 

“We are working unconditionally, turning over every stone and leaving nothing to chance. Our hope is to be able to confirm who has committed this crime but it should be noted that it likely will be difficult given the circumstances,” Ljungqvist said. 

 [M: A post about Truss possibly killing NATO/Trans-Atlantic alliance here. Since Russia did not blame NATO directly it had to be a NATO member acting rogue with direct or silent help from other states. The working strong hypothesis is that it was the UK. One hint is that Sweden is investigating possible involvement of own country, individuals and/or its infrastructure. The NATO seems not to be involved yet the centre of NATO Marine operation is in London. Hence a strong suspicion that the UK was behind monitoring moves of other NATO members. Uncovering who knew what at different stages is a political nuclear bomb which could put down instantly several governments in Europe and cause international turmoil, instability, realignment...]  

26 May 2023 - Riled on Nord Stream Probe, Russia Summons European Envoys

The Swedish government prosecutor overseeing Stockholm’s investigation had acknowledged the “detonations” that hit both pipelines of the twin Baltic Sea gas conveyor, which partly lies in Swedish and Danish exclusive economic zones, may have been orchestrated by a government.

“We got a pretty clear picture at the scene of the crime of who carried it out”, Mats Ljungqvist told Russian state media TASS in comments about a Swedish update on the probe April 10. “It cannot be ruled out that there are some private individuals who may have been the perpetrators. Still, our main lead is, of course, that a government is behind it - directly or indirectly”.

[M: Looks like the state which has done it is known but investigators are going after individuals who were involved. There may be some who are not government employees. My set of suspects is here]   

14 June 2023 - Swedish prosecutor hopes to conclude Nord Stream investigation in autumn - Swedish radio

Mats Ljungqvist, the prosecutor leading the Swedish investigation, told Swedish Radio he had met the German prosecutor and that they were working together but declined to give further details.

"I hope that we at least this autumn will be able to make a decision regarding indictments, at least that is the ambition as things stand now," Ljungqvist told Swedish public service broadcaster SR. "I think, actually, in time, it will be brought to light (who carried out the sabotage)."

[M: Hints to the NATO member which is invested and involved in the Ukrainian affair. I suspect that there is some agreement not to reveal the culprit while the conflict is still in active stage.] 

Ljungqvist told Reuters in April that the main scenario was that a state or a state-backed group was behind the attack.

"I think that hypothesis has been strengthened during the course of the investigation," he told SR. 

22 June 2023: "#NordStream Blasts Probe: Prosecutors Reserve Right to Classify Specific Data"

The disclaimer comes a week after Mats Ljungqvist, the public prosecutor in charge of the probe, hinted charges could be framed against perpetrators in the coming months.

The move is in line with national laws for the Swedish Prosecution Authority to decide how much material it wants to enter the public domain - in case there is an indictment - the body asserted. (Ria Novosti)

"If there is going to be an indictment, parts of the investigation material will probably be public. Generally, a prosecutor in Sweden may also decide that some parts should remain confidential.

If an investigation is discontinued, no material will be public. After such decisions, everyone is able to request the material via either the court, police or prosecutor," the authority said.

20 September 2023: Swedish prosecutor hopes to conclude Nord Stream enquiry by year-end

"We hope to conclude the investigation shortly but there is still a lot to do and nothing will happen for the next four weeks," Mats Ljungqvist said in an interview.

"By conclude, I mean that we close the investigation or take a decision to bring charges against someone," he said, adding that the ambition was to reach a decision before the end of the year.

[M: Lets return to this on 19-10-2023] 

Summary:

- There is no contradiction between mine and SWE investigation.

- Mats Ljundgqvist statements mentions that the Russia, USA were excluded and that a government is behind the act. 

- Mats Ljundgqvist excludes amateur pro-Ukrainian group.

- My conclusion of the UK government being the main rogue actor is not excluded.

- Mats Ljundgqvist has not defined what type of the crime was it - sabotage, terrorist or else as explained on my other post.

- Mats Ljundgqvist statements seem to be hinting that there are SWE security constraints which prohibit to mention the main suspect. 

Conclusion:

Given the data in public domain and the data set I collected there is a very high probability that the UK government was behind the Nordstream affair and that other countries know well about this.

I see a point in filing criminal cases against those who did the crime and those who covered it up. Perhaps official investigations could proceed but without announcing who was behind due to political risk.
