the actor Mads Mikkelsen, Iben Hjejle, Pell Hevnegaard, and Rigmor Zobel and her husband Jesper Ravn. The Norwegian Lene Nystrøm later joined the group represented by Larsen. A problem of principle regarding the police's conduct arose when computers, telephones, and other equipment were seized from Aller Media; these could have contained information relevant to the investigation but could also reveal the identities of press sources unrelated to the case. Aller Media argued to the court (Retten i Glostrup) that by seizing items, the police were violating source protection. On 17 June 2014, the court ruled that the police could examine the material, which Aller Media responded to by appealing to the Landsret (high court). At the time Østre Landsret followed the previous court but in July 2014, the Højesteret ruled that the police could in fact not investigate the seized material until the main case, which later began in December 2014, had concluded in the same court. However, the state prosecutor indicated that they believed the police would be unable to satisfactorily investigate parts of the scandal if they were not allowed to use the material. Concretely, the police wished to search for the words "nurse", "police", and "source". The investigation met further problems when one of the involved persons was declared too ill to be interviewed. In January 2015, the Højesteret came to a ruling in the main case that gave the police the right to search Aller's digital storage. The ruling stated that: Copenhagen's Vestegns Politi consequently began searching the material, which filled 13 terabytes. The Danish Data Protection Agency also investigated to determine whether Se og Hør had violated Danish privacy law. They chose not to investigate Nets because that company instead fell under the jurisdiction of the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority. Additionally the Digitaliseringsstyrelse (Agency for Digitisation) demanded a statement from Nets regarding the security of their handling of NemID. Nets themselves carried out an internal investigation and published their initial findings on 5 May 2014. They acknowledged the finding of "patterns in behaviour indicating that abuse may have occurred" and stated that the illegal actions appeared to have been carried out by an IBM employee. Later findings were passed directly to the police without public announcement. The police, Nets, and IBM all investigated not just the apparent credit card information leakage to Se og Hør but also whether any further leaks had occurred, especially any
