Against all the accused for offences committed against the Parliament, offences committed against the state, the public peace and general order and for illegal entry by having, on December 8 2008, together with a group of unknown people, without permission, forcefully entered into the house of Parliament while the assembly was in order. In order to get into the house of Parliament and onto the public benches, the accused assaulted the parliamentary guards [name of the guards], with violence and threats of violence and force, the guards were held, pushed, and prevented from performing their legal duties. The accused forcefully entered the building and proceeded to force their way up the stairs that lead to the public benches, and in the process assaulted the parliamentary guards [names of guards] in the same manner and the police officer [name of police officer], with the intent of getting to the public benches. With their behavior the accused violated the immunity and peace of Parliament, spoiling its ability to work in peace, as well as threatening its security. All as is further described in items 1-5:

1. The accused Þór interfered with [Parliament guard 1] performing her duties by holding the east door of the Parliament building open despite the fact that [Parliament guard 1] tried to close them.
2. The accused Andri Leó assaulted [Parliament guard 1] from behind, pushed her out of the building and held her with the assistance of an unknown individual, so that the group of people, including the accused, could force their way into the building without interruption.
3. The accused Sólveig pushed [Parliament guard 2] in order to get into the building of Parliament and grabbed [Parliament guard 3] in order to make access to the staircase easier. In addition, she held onto [Parliament guard 4], pushed her out of her way and held her as the Parliament guard tried to prevent the group of people from entering the building.
4. The accused Andri Leó assaulted, along with two unknown persons, [Parliament guard 2], while he was performing his legal duties trying to prevent the group of people from entering the building, and held him up against a wall.
5. The accused Andri Leó resisted forcefully when [Parliament guard 2] tried to get him out of the building and during the altercation he pushed [Parliament guard 1] with his right hand so that she fell backwards onto a radiator in the lobby.
6. As the accused, along with a group of unknown persons, forcibly tried to go up the staircase leading to the public benches, [Parliament guard 5] and [Parliament guard 6], along with [police officer 1], prevented the group from further ascending the staircase, and were shortly thereafter assisted by [Parliament guard 3] and [Parliament guard 4], but the group, including the accused, tried to get past them by pushing, shoving, and by climbing over them. The accused, Snorri Páll, along with an unknown female, made his way onto the public benches, and once there, shouted at members of Parliament to get out.

The consequences of the attack were that [Parliament guard 1] sprained her neck, upper back, breast and lower back and sustained a bruise to her breast, [Parliament guard 3] sprained his left shoulder, [Parliament guard 4] received bruises to both arms, a bruise to her right thigh, and suffered some soreness in the back of her head, [Parliament guard 5] suffered a mild sprain to the back of his head, and [Police officer 1] sustained injuries to his right thumb and right knee and his permanent medical disability is 8%.

The conduct of the accused is in violation of the law under the 1st paragraph of the 100th article, 1st paragraph of the 106th article, the 107th article, the 1st and 2nd paragraph of article 122, and the 231st article of Penal Code no. 19/1940.

Against the accused Andri Leó for offences against the state for having, following the events described in the first section of the Indictment, attacked the police officers [names of officers], biting [name of police officer] in his left hand and for biting [name of police officer] in her left shoulder. As a result [police officer X] suffered great soreness, tenderness and swelling in his left hand and name of police officer bruising on the back of her left shoulder.

This is considered a violation of the 1st paragraph of the 106th article of the Penal Code no. 19/1940.

III.

Against the accused Snorri Páll for offences against the state by having, following the events described in the first section of the Indictment attempted to free a person who had been placed under arrest, from the hands of the police officer [name of police officer], as police officers were transporting arrested persons from the Parliament building through the back entrance of the building.

This is considered a violation of the 1st paragraph of the 106th article of the Penal Code no. 19/1940.

IV.

Against the accused Steinunn for violating Police Code, by having, following the events described in the first section of the Indictment, on two separate occasions crossed a police banner set up at the corner of Kirkju-street and Vonar-street, and for having proceeded towards police officers while they were transporting arrested individuals, thereby interfering with police duties and disobeying police orders.

This is considered a violation of the 19th and 21st article according to the 1st paragraph of the 41st article of Police law no. 90/1996.

The State demands that the accused be sentenced to penalties under the aforementioned laws and made to bear the full cost of the trial.
