Guðmundur and Geirfinnur case
The Guðmundur and Geirfinnur case () concerns the disappearances of Guðmundur Einarsson and Geirfinnur Einarsson in 1974 in Iceland. Six people were convicted of their alleged murders on the basis of confessions (sometimes called the Reykjavik confessions) extracted by the police after intense and lengthy interrogations, despite lacking the bodies of the victims, witnesses, or any forensic evidence.In later years, most Icelanders believe the six were wrongfully convicted. On 27 September 2018, 44 years after the disappearances of Guðmundur and Geirfinnur, the Supreme Court of Iceland acquitted five of the six original suspects. Provided by Wikipedia
