Today starts the case
on "Black Business Floki" -

- Against a 53-year-old human-
trading and tax evasion

cleaning company
used by several well-known companies.

Our reporter in Ystad.

We are waiting for the trial
in the so-called "Black Business Floki" -

- Against a 53-year-old human-
trading and tax evasion.

cleaning company
that is used by several known companies.

Surprising enough, the municipalities
and government agencies are among its customers.

Cleaning workers did night work under
almost sl*ve-like conditions.

Sometimes seven nights in a row
for only 35 kroner an hour.

It can be called human trafficking.

These are vulnerable people
that are listed here and have been exploited.

Are there connections
to organized crime?

- Nothing concerning that in the indictment.
- Ystad Municipality is one of the customers.

Can Lennart Sylwan
comment on it?

We had no reason to suspect
anything when we signed the agreement.

Our lawyers carefully went
through everything.

It will be discussed during the trial.

I would add that we in the municipality,
and not least myself, are happy-

- to bring an end to all suspicions
that we could have taken part-

- in this use of sl*ves.

We are obviously excited
about tomorrow.

- What do you think?
- Good case. Lots of evidence.

- We should win this.
- Good. Good luck.

- We'll talk.
- Bye.

Now I have to get to the court.

Would he come here
if we had charged more people?

- What do you mean?
- Himself, for example.

As Mayor
he is the chief manager.

And he obviously had no idea
that it was ill*gal?

No, they just happen to charge
half of a typical company.

What time is it?
No, now I'm late again!

Do you mind? I need some fresh air.

Give me the keys. I'll get the car.

Kurt? Thank you.

Kurt?

How are you?

There is nothing wrong with you.
You passed out from the pressure wave.

You've been incredibly lucky.

Martinsson. Do they know anything?

No, not yet. But you, Kurt...

- I must go down to the station.
- You can't, just...lie down.

- Kurt, you must rest.
- I know, but...

Please, Catherine.
Can't you call?

It was me they wanted.

Yes, I know.

There are some who do not want this to
get to trial.

But it must.

Right?

Hey, where are you going? You cannot just leave.

- Am I forced to stay at the hospital?
- No, but we have our rules.

You are crazy.

Wallander? Were you injured
in the b*mb plot?

- Can we get a comment?
- What consequences will this have?

Will you still carry out the trial
against Philip Pasalic?

The trial will begin tomorrow,
exactly as planned.

There are no witnesses
who have seen anything about the car.

Who has had contact
with Philip Pasalic in jail?

He met his wife,
son and lawyer.

He'll get a maximum of two years
in this case.

If he is behind the b*mb, he
gets life. Why take the chance?

This may lead to three years if he is
found guilty on all counts.

I can only get him convicted
for the Black Business issue.

If I can do it,
and hopefully more with a witness.

When it comes to complicity in m*rder,
abduction, extortion,

- and fraud, you know Philip.
So he takes the risk.

- What do you have Nyberg?
- They have brought in the car.

- And protection for Catherine?
- I have arranged it.

We will get the b*mber. We'll go
through the investigation again.

Get started on it Martinsson.

How are you?

Pasalic sits in jail and
the rest of the department is safe.

- I asked how you were.
- Good...when I think about it.

Here it is. AK 630 Multi 4

Once we have it in place,
we can test it.

Fine, fine.

But you must be in operation
by the deadline.

We may need some time
for the installation.

Then we have a problem.
I talked to Brussels.

There are several municipalities that have applied
for this support.

- They are far ahead.
- Why hasn't anyone said anything about it?

Costs are based on the premise
that we get all the garbage handling.

- You have promised us ...
- It was a news to me too.

If we are not going ahead as promised, the
environmental certificate can go to someone else.

And the 20 million.

This facility will be ready.

Yes.
Here is the new waste mill stand.

- It's pretty slow around here.
- Don't worry. We'll meet the deadline.

Good.

Our man in Brussels wants to
come by and see it.

- Are you good on Friday?
- Sure.

The b*mb was easily placed
in the engine.

- Do we know anything about the perpetrator?
- No, but it is interesting that well...

...the b*mb would only make a small bang.

There was a spark cap and a little gunpowder.
What you experienced was a pressure wave.

- A warning shot, that is?
- Yes.

Just to scare?
Should I be worried about it?

- How are you?
- Someone wants to blow me up...

Who will blow you up?

You said there was nothing dangerous.
Why would they want to k*ll you?

- No one will k*ll me.
- You're lying.

What should I do with the children?
Are they in danger?

- Shouldn't they have protection?
- Yes. But they cannot go to school.

It is difficult
to protect them there.

Yesterday morning prosecutor C. Ahlsells'
car was the victim of a b*mb assassination attempt.

My client has been informed of his rights.

He has no knowledge
of any assassination attempt.

You took a f*cking great risk.
Are you ready to take the consequences?

This is not an interrogation.
I suggest that we end this here.

No, I want to say something.

How is it Catherine?

I understand you are upset.
You're colleagues.

Friends. It was apparent during my hearing.

What you are blaming me for
is completely untrue.

- I've been here.
- You can be f*cking sure of something:

I'll get those you have gotten
to do this.

Do I have to repeat
that he has been here all along?

You have no evidence
and he has an alibi.

Can I ask you something?
How do you sleep at night?

I have no problems
with sleep.

- How does your family sleep, then?
- What the hell do you mean by that?

Your son. Is he not worried
what will happen to you?

Have your lawyer ask him while he's there?

Sleep well tonight.

Don't forget, 5:30 tomorrow.

- Zoran. How are things with you?
- Good.

You must be finished earlier.
This week.

- Will you be?
- We will try, but...

If there are additional costs,
we'll take care of it.

- All right. Then we'll try.
- You have to be finished this week.

Otherwise, I'll find another solution.

- Right. Then we'll do it.
- Good. Thank you.

Talk to you later.

New orders.
We have to finish sooner.

OK, back to work in 15 minutes.

But we've just finished. Come on.

Do you want to work here or not?
Do you want your money?

OK, 15 minutes everybody.

- OK?
- OK.

- How are you?
- I miss you.

I miss you too.

I'm sorry
I can't stay here.

- I understand.
- I'm going back to work. OK?

What's going on?
Who is she?

She is my little sister.

What is she doing here?

I had no choice.
What could I do?

Leave her behind when
I left the orphanage?

She, she's no problem,
I promise.

I beg you, don't tell anyone.

Any problems?

- No. No problem.
- Start work then.

Then I'll fix it in two weeks.

It's ok.

- Zoran, Zoran?
- What?

- Look, it's too heavy.
- No it's not.

Keep on working. And work
you lazy b*stards.

My sister...

Promise me...

I'll take care of her. I promise.

- Take him inside.
- He must have doctor!

Yeah, I know but take him inside first.
I'll get the doctor.

I'll come out.
I'll just get a coat.

It's best that way.

It's easy to be strong for myself.
But I have to think about them.

I can't expose them to this.

- Do they want to go?
- No. Not without me.

They are restless and angry,
but they will go on the plane.

Henry will meet them at Arlanda.

And you?

I'll stay here and do my job.

If we don't do something,
who will?

OK, the doctor's on his way...

so, yeah, uh you can go now. I take care
of this. Thank you very much.

Please...help me.

Where is Jonas?

Please, help me.

- Bye.
- Bye, sweetie.

Bye, Mom.

We'll call you when we get there.

My Elijah.

- All right?
- All right

-Good morning.
-Good morning.

Here is Ekot with the news.

The whole country expresses support
for the prosecutor Catherine Ahlsell -

- in the trial that starts today for
the so-called "Black Business Floki".

It is an attack on the entire
the Swedish democracy.

The trial is extremely important,

as it will set a precedent
for the future.

In an era of globalization
such as this, I cannot...

The first prosecution witness is
Youssef Amir. Please proceed.

Youssef Amir come to ward four.

The witness has not arrived.

How does the prosecution
wish to proceed?

We'll call the witness later
and move on.

Customs is here with a little girl.
She is waiting in the reception.

- Can't Martinsson take it?
- No. You must come.

Hello.

Nice dog. What's your name?

What's your name?

- Uh, this is Jussi.
- Jussi.

What's your name?

Where do you come from?

Do you come from Poland...Poland?

Lithuania?

You come from Lithuania.

Jussi and ... What is your name?
My name is Kurt.

Natalia.

She says that her brother Jonas
has disappeared, and that he is dead.

Then she said something
I do not understand.

- Something with "Racko."
- Can that be a name?

Not that I know of.

Where are her parents?

Where are your parents?

She refuses to answer
to that question..

- Reeko.
- Racko?

Where are you going?

Let her go.

Reeko.

Reeko.

- Hey, hey, hey. Have you seen this girl?
- No.

- Hey you, have you seen her?
- No.

- Hey sir, do you know her?
- No. - OK.

How is Vytautas?
He's in the hospital, huh?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's fine, fine,
but his friend...a terrible accident.

But I took care of everything. I helped his family.
Money, everything, you understand?

- OK. I understand.
- OK

Let's go in here.

Natalia?

Natalia?

Send some men to look fo her.

She's gone. Make sure that they
check the port and railway station.

Hey, send a couple of cars.
The girl has disappeared.

Fahrad Szabas to ward four.

When you worked, your shift
would last for 15 hours.

- Is it true?
- No.

- It is not true?
- No, we did not work that long.

Much less.

You told the police
during questioning

that you work 15 hours
at a time without breaks.

No. I remembered wrong.

You recant
your prior statement?

I am telling it like
I remember.

It was great, everything.

"Great?"

No more questions.

Look in that area.
She ran that way.

We have men down here.

We use a staffing firm.
They have staff from the Baltic region.

Does someone work here with a little sister
who's 8-10 years old from Lithuania? - No.

- What staffing company is that?
- The driver is not black.

It is a good business.
Novak crew.

- Do you have a contact?
- Yes, I do.

Novak crew were involved
in the investigation of Philip Pasalic

Zoran Popov, who runs Novak...

He has worked
with Philip Pasalic.

Hi.
Kurt Wallander, Ystad police.

Hi, Zoran Popov.
Lay.

You work for a company
named Reeko, right?

Yes. We help with an annex.

- Baltic guys?
- Yes. And they are here legally.

You have worked for a guy
named Philip Pasalic.

- You got him workers.
- Yes, that's right.

I sent an invoice for 20,000 kroner
for consultant fees.

Everything was fine for him from my side.
You can check my bookkeeping.

Do you know any of his friends?

Have you come here to ask if I
know Philip's criminal friends?

We are looking for a
Lithuanian man named Jonas.

- Jonas? OK...
- Do you know him?

- Should I?
- Maybe you have worked together?

No.
I don't know anyone named Jonas.

- Can we get the staffing lists?
- Sure. Of course.

Excuse me.
These are the people who work with...

You can just give it to me.

OK.

Jonas is here with his
little sister of 8-9 years.

We believe that something
has happened to him.

Thank you.

- Thank you.
- Bye.

- Hi. How are you?
- I'm good.

Zoran was involved in the investigation.
He was a consultant for Pasalic.

But then I found this
pass from the police.

They been to Lithuania together
within the past two months.

They lived for a week
in the hotel Rival in Vilnius.

- And then they went home again.
- Good. Good work.

- Something new about the girl, Svartman?
- No. Nothing new.

- Get out an artist's sketch of her.
- OK.

How did it go?

Two witnesses failed to show and one withdrew
everything he had told.

He "remembered wrong."
I sat there like a f*cking idiot.

I would have pressured witnesses
if I thought it would help.

- This isn't funny.
- They are too afraid.

- What do you know about Zoran?
- He worked with Philip.

We tried to get him to testify,
but he would not.

He's probably got a good deal to tell.

- Has he changed his mind or what?
- No, but he might be persuaded.

Could you do it?

To get him to be
a witness, I mean.

Now you're desperate. Would it
help prove the case?

Yes, indirectly. You were there for the raid
and questioning.

I need someone who can testify
about what they said in the interrogation room.

When?

Ok, here's some tickets. Here's for you, you.
Come on. And here's for you. Yes.

- Tonight?
- Yes, you go home tonight.

- But you promised us more work.
- Yeah, but there's no more work. It's finished. OK?

But don't worry, I'll find you
work and you'll come back.
And now get your things together, ok?

Good.

After leaving the Sturup Airport, you said?

Six pieces? You're welcome.

See you. Thanks, Lennart.

Bye.

Zoran?

The police were here.
Did they talk to you?

Yes, they wanted to look at some papers.
Just routine, I guess.

- They talked about a little girl.
- There is nothing I know of her.

- Do you know?
- No. What has it got to do with us?

I assume
that everything is under control.

And you're keeping to the deadline?
- We need to replace staff, but even then.

I hope so.
You know what that means.

- We will be finished on time.
- Good.

That's good.

Hi.

This is the girl...

So you'll know what she looks like. Call
me if you see her.

- OK. Hello
- Hi.

Welcome to Sweden. Yes, this way.

- The officer found nothing?
- No, unfortunately.

- What shall we do?
- I want to go to Reeko.

There was something there
that scared the girl.

- What?
- I don't know.

I am convinced that her brother
worked there. Zoran is lying.

- Work lists are easy to forge.
- We need to push Zoran.

OK everybody. Here we are.

This way.
You're very welcome.

We've prepared a little Swedish
something for you.

So be welcome and sit down. Yes.

- Care for some champagne?
- Very exotic.

- Wallander is here again.
- Why? What does he want?

- Hi.
- Hi. What is it?

- I want to look around the premises.
- Then you need to come a little later.

- Now is not a good time.You'll need to come back later.
- I will just find my own way around.

- Is Zoran Popov here?
- Did you hear what I said?

You can't come in here
without permission.

- Wallander...
- Hi.

You can speak with one of our
subcontractors. You can find him on your own.

Bye.

Hi.

Kurt Wallander, policeman.

- Did you work here all week?
- No, not start all week.

- Uh, just Monday, Tuesday?
- Uh, no, not here.

Not here. OK.
OK. Uh, thank you.

We know that Philip Pasalic and you were
on a trip together to Poland.

- A pure coincidence.
- And you took the train to Lithuania together.

Pure chance too? I know you know
quite a lot about Philip's business.

- Why not testify?
- What do you want it?

I know something happened
at your workplace.

Something that has to do with the girl.

Which girl?

You know what I'm talking about.

This is from my client.

- What is this?
- For a service, probably.

This is only 30,000
I should have gotten more.

I don't know anything about it.

Car b*mb.

OK. If the person who did this-

- is arrested,
what can he be charged with?

Roughly vandalism,
attempted m*rder of a police officer.

Whoever did it,
will probably get life

What if there is a "book?"
Would the punishment be lighter?

I was pressured to do it.

You're on your own when it comes
to this car b*mb.

But I'll give you some advice
as a lawyer.

- Don't say anything.
- No.

If Kurt Wallander arrests me,
then it's because everything about your client is known.

- Wallander doesn't have sh*t.
- There have been several crimes commited here.

- Can he prove them?
- I want more money so I can leave.

- Can he do it?
- Not yet.

Then fix your problems
without involving my client.

I need more money,
otherwise I can't.

Do you think you
can blackmail me?

Are you thinking about
saying something to the police-

- because you think it will help you?
I think you're wrong.

It is only you who will get hurt then.
Nobody else.

Kurt Wallander is your problem.

Our interrogation protocol
recording time.

Has the lawyer had access
to all this?

So we have pictures from the raid.

Hello, hello.

Sorry.

It was my children who called here earlier.

- Yearning of home?
- Home?

They will not return. Henry will
enroll them in their old school.

They didn't want to.
I was like...

I do not know anything anymore.

Only that I must complete this
trial and I'm terrified.

Well, they achieved what they wanted.
A frightened prosecutor.

Of course I'm afraid.

Afraid to die and be
taken from my kids.

I have a life outside this job
that matters.

Aren't you afraid to die?

I'm afraid of dying alone.

Thinking about her? The little girl.

Sure.

I think about her all the time.

You must wait for me to be ready.

Don't be so impatient. OK, let's go now.

Wait. I have to get the mail.

Take it easy.

What is it?

Jussi.

Jussi.

Jussi?

Kurt Wallander report
to ward four.

Kurt Wallander to ward four.

Shall we proceed?

No. I have to ask for a short break.

He has an open break in a bone
and probably internal injuries.

- We can try surgery, but ...
- Just do it.

It will be expensive.
And we can't guarantee anything.

I understand. Thank you.

When did it happen?

Thank you.

Can we get a statement?

Can you confirm that it is because you are
to be a witness in the Black Business Floki trial?

Give us something.

I'm on my way to my workplace.
Can you respect that?

- Hi. I will not ask.
- No.

They will operate on him. They'll call
when they know how it has gone.

- If it has gone well or...
- Sorry.

I've been worried about you too.
I have.

But with Jussi it is a kind of...

It is a special kind of thing.

I know, Ebba.

- Something to say?
- You must get protection.

- Something to talk about?
- You must get protection.

This time they were out
to k*ll. Do you understand that?

No. I do not know anything more.
I have to ask you again...

...to get protection.

The sample from Reeko? Spots.
Was it blood?

No. Dead end I'm afraid.

I'd be grateful if you could help
me. I don't quite have time for it.

We can talk more about that later.

How is it?

Good. I live.

- Jussi?
- Well ...

I don't know.

- Are you ready for today?
- Yes.

Or no.

The Swedish government spent 12,000 kroner on
two witnesses from Lithuania who did not show -

- And the defense questioned
the proof of your testimony.

Yes, that's understandable.

What do you want me to do?
No one dares to testify.

And they tried to stop you.

We should probably start
the trial over again.

That could be a good thing.
Then we can make a deal with Zoran.

If we get him to testify,
the others will join.

That would be good, right?

Kurt? I do not know if
I can stand this again.

I don't think so.

All right. Good. Good to know.

- Hi.
- Why are not you on site?

- We should finish this week ...
- We are finished.

- Just don't hassle me!
- Don't raise your voice to me.

I'll pay you. I'm trying to keep track of everthing
going on here. What is really happening?

- OK, there has been an accident.
- It is your responsibility, not mine.

- You have insurance?
- "Not my responsibility?"

Why not hire a Swedish company
to construct your building?

No, you wanted it cheap.

There is no insurance.

Someone at the passenger-ferry terminal
has seen a girl alone at the harbor.

- What is she wearing?
- In a blue jacket.

OK, I'll be there in a few minutes.

- Hi. She's over there.
- Where?

Out.

- Did you see her?
- No.

- Stay here in case she shows up again.
- OK

No search!

Damn it! Hell, f*cking sh*t!

- Excuse me.
- What is this??

- A token of my appreciation.
- Thank you.

Our man in Brussels called and said
that if you meet the requirements -

- the certificate...

...and not least,
the 20 million is ours.

Thank you.

- It's not quite finished yet.
- It is on course.

Cheers!

Here you are. Have a nice day.

Hello. I want a Pringles.

Strandv...

Hello. Come in.

I have decided
to step down.

The trial is postponed
until they find someone to take over.

- When did you decide that?
- Today.

What good is it?

I understand the witnesses
who withdraw.

They get no protection.
The Justice system is not working.

You might have died today.
Do you realize that?

But I did not.
I stand here before you.

I'm moving back
to Stockholm.

I have resigned
effective immediately.

OK.

So you're leaving?

- You're leaving...
- I want to be where my kids are.

Sit still!

Martinsson.

Can you send reinforcements?

- No!
- Yes. Come here.

- So, so. Go now.
- No!

Come on!

Be quiet! Go now.

Go, I say.
Don't be afraid.

Please, go.

Sorry.

Zoran?

What is this? What are you doing?
Who is that?

f*ck it ... She saw it happen..

- What are you talking about?
- The accident.

- What the hell are you talking about?
- There were two who died!

She is a witness!

Stay there!

- You cannot sh**t her.
- What the hell are you gonna do about it?

Are you going to call the
police or something?

Are you going to pay life insurance
to the family out of your own pocket?

I know you. You will only
say that it was my fault.

- She's a child. Give the g*n to me.
- Stop!

No. I will get my certificates.

And you will slip away.
Do not go and do something f*cking stupid now.

Now give it to me.

Give it to me now.

Drop the weapon.

Drop the weapon!

Zoran. She is a child.

An innocent child. Let her go.

Zoran. Hell, either
enter into an agreement

with God, if you believe in him.

Or with me...

I am with you.

No one else can help you.

Give me Philip Pasalic.

Tell us all about his business.
I'll help you.

On this you have my word.

I can't stay long.
I just want to say goodbye, and ...

... Congratulations.
- Thank you.

How are things with Jussi?

Good.
He will probably be there overnight.

You have done a brilliant job.
Totally alone.

Zoran has testified against Philip
and now he is finally convicted.

- You must be completely exhausted.
- I'm all right.

I have no life, so...

- Sorry. I did not mean that.
- It's okay.

Besides, it is unfortunately true.

- What if you had it?
- What?

Another life.

Could you be happy?

I do not know. Maybe.

Then I could perhaps feel
as complete as I do with this sh*t.

- When do you go?
- Tomorrow.

- Everything is packed and ready?
- Packed and ready.

Who should I drink
the bottle with?

You'll probably get to Stockholm.

Oh, sorry.

Kurt, we have a problem. They cannot
put her on a train alone.

Someone has to follow her to
the family in Stockholm.

- Who?
- Natalia. The girl.

Child Welfare found a foster family
for her in Stockholm.

I can go with her.

When are you going to Stockholm?
When?

- Today.
- What will you do there?

No idea. I'll find something.

When are you coming back?

No idea.

Yes, Ebba. Let's go.

Now...it's time.

- See.
- Come here Jussi.

Hey, boy.
