F. How long do you have contact with him? Until he gets excited by the darkness or do you let him go earlier?

J. No, I see him on the stairs over there, until he runs up at least three flights of stairs.

F. Three flights of stairs or three steps?

J. Yes, three steps if you say so. Then I was on the taxi radio and then I went out straight away and then the police came, yes he could have been right up there because it happened so fast.

F. Did you mention to the police that he ran in that direction?

J. Yes I shouted at the first picket that came, that he ran away there, but then this base for this gang stands up and wants witness statements and he wants all that stuff, and then it's been another 20 seconds.

F. They didn't start the pursuit right away then?

J. No it took about 15-20 seconds before they ran after him. And I just shouted straight at them, he ran away there! But then they followed and I think there were 5-6 of them running after.

Q. Did you see anything else noticeable around this person? Did you see if he possibly made contact with anyone else while running? Or could you see...

J. No, he only has one thought in his head, which is to run away as fast as possible.

Q. At what point did you find out that it was Palme?

J. Yes, when one of the policemen or if it was the ambulance man asked her what his name was and then she shouted something like, I'm Lisbeth, don't you recognize Olof Palme, she then screams outright. Then I went over and looked, then I saw that it was him, but not before, and no one knew about it before either, neither the police nor the ambulance nor anyone.

F. But when you find out that it was Palme who was lying there, had the police already started the pursuit after this one?

J. Yes, this was 5 minutes after, when the ambulance arrived, because then they ran after it right away, right? But just when the ambulance arrived, that's when someone asked, was it an ambulance man or was it a policeman, I don't know. I just heard someone asking. But then there was another one there who, if he was a construction worker that one
