The Kambo Man
For 30 years the case has been a mystery to the police. Who was the man? What did he do in this deserted place, and where did he come from?
The sun has so far stood up when locomotive Svein Ivar Johannessen and conductor Roger Aaserud are going to roll off with the commuter train from Moss in the direction of Oslo.
The date is September 22, 1987 and the clock has just passed eight in the morning.
At Moss station they get signs from the conductor on the train that has arrived from Oslo.
- The conductor made a strong sign to me that we should stop. We didn't have communication at that time. Then he said to me: Drive carefully because there is something in the railroad between Kambo and Moss.
Svein Ivar gets conductor Roger Aaserud to sit in front of the locomotive while they are leaving. As they approach Kambo mill, they drive slowly.
- Then I see that there is a case in the railroad. At first I thought it was a garbage bag. But when I get closer, I see that it is a human, says Svein Ivar.
The body of the railroad
Svein Ivar stops the train and jumps out of the locomotive. He sees that there is a body lying there. A man, maybe between 50 and 60 years old. He is lying on his stomach on the left side of the track. The right arm and foot are separated from the rest of the body. The man has ordinary clothes, and nothing else is striking with the person lying there.
The man was wearing the following when he was found:
