Police confirm: Municipality reports nordic waste

East Jutland Police District confirmed receiving Randers Municipality’s complaint against Nordic Waste. The company is accused of legal responsibility for a landslide at its soil storage site in Ølst, threatening the environment. Randers Municipality’s investigation blames Nordic Waste, despite noting the municipality’s own oversight deficiencies didn’t incur liability. High-profile involvement includes visits from Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen and other ministers, while a government-ordered study may seek to establish potential legal or even criminal accountability. The moral responsibility debate centers on the company’s owners, Torben Østergaard Nielsen and his daughters.
