In 2013 Dagbladet quoted Knut Flovik Thoresen saying—in regards to the camps that were to cost the lives of 2,368 Yugoslavs—that "Norwegian guards' gruesome violations against Yugoslav prisoners in Norway during the war, were so cruel that I have hardly ever read about more brutal acts".
Forfatteren Knut Flovik Thoresen skrev i 2013 om de lejre, der kom til at koste 2.368 jugoslaver livet: "De norske fangevogteres grusomme overgrep mod jugoslaviske fanger i Nord-Norge under krigen var så groteske, at jeg knapt har læst om mere brutale handlinger".
