Tvind witnesses

The Copenhagen Post/February 7, 2003

Defectors from the alternative school, or 'sect,' Tvind, are lining up to testify against Tvind founder Mogens Amdi Pedersen when he appears in the High Court on 5 March to answer charges of embezzlement and tax evasion.

Fifteen of the names on the prosecution's witness list are former Tvind members, who according to Berlingske Tidende have told police investigators that they are prepared to offer evidence that, contrary to Pedersen's claims, he has run Tvind during his many years in exile abroad.
