On 23 March 1976, the special prosecutor Anders Nordenadler dropped the charges against Bergman, saying that the alleged crime had no legal basis, saying it would be like bringing "charges against a person who has stolen his own car, thinking it was someone else's".
23. ožujka 1976. tužitelj Anders Nordenadler je odbacio optužbe protiv Bergmana, rekavši da navodni "kriminal" nema zakonske osnove, te ga usporedivši sa slučajem "podizanja optužnice protiv osobe koja krade vlastiti auto".
