Nina Yvesinsen, one of the victims, is also a Sami, who seemed to have written books about abuse from around the age of 14 and made public to the public, but even if he told anyone of the adults he would listen to me On the contrary, it was said that he was spitting abusing himself as "slut girl" "lied with lie".

In 2007, the family of the victim sent letters to the Prime Minister of Norway to appeal the fact of sexual abuse, and even at the meeting where local politicians, medical officials, police and others attended, It will be dismissed as "It is impossible for such a large amount of sexual abuse to happen."

Mr. Yvesensen who felt that it was made not to have the fact of sexual abuse will post a poem that condemns sexual abuse on her Facebook. In this poem the capital letters "TYSFJORD" and the name of Tusfiyur were hidden.


A local woman who saw this poem by touching Mr. Yvesensen starts talking about sexual damage itself. Actually the woman was already in contact with a free journalist. Mr. Yveselsen also contacted other victims and succeeded in announcing the fact of sexual abuse on national newspapers. As a result of this report, the Norwegian police also started investigating, which resulted in more than 151 cases of sexual abuse over 60 years.

The victims of sexual abuse in Tusfilar are from 10 to 75 years old, more than 70% are Sami people. Some of the victims were also prosecuted as perpetrators at the same time. In addition, although not all, in some cases, there were cases that there was a ritual case that there was a ritual result as a result of the mixing of Sami's own shamanism and Christianity. The reason why chained sexual abuse has not been regarded as a problem in the town for more than 60 years has been pointed out as discrimination consciousness against Sami people, the secret principles of Sami itself, and the concealment constitution of Tusfiyeol as a whole.

According to Sami's rights group, the Sami people are deepening their distrust of the government and the police by receiving discriminatory treatment for many years. The fact that this sexual assault did not come to light is also said to be attributed to the fact that Tusfiyol's Sami people did not have the perception that "the police will help themselves."
