Knytnæveslaget gave in the first place Kristian Jensen sporting quarantined forward to 1. december, but he also risk being punished by the courts.
Friday case to the court of Hjørring, in which the prosecutor demands prison for the 23-year-old hockey player. Jensen is charged according to penal code section 244 for 'to have awarded the victim a hard blow to the head while the victim lay down'.
the Case is being followed with great interest, for it is extremely rare that the episodes in the games of sport to be decided in court.
- We need 20 to 25 years back, to find recently there was a case in ishockeysporten. And it has never previously been liganiveau. It has always been in the sekundarækkerne, that there has been politisager, says the Danish ice Hockey Union director, Ulrik Larsen.

The rarity makes the course also interesting in the legal world.
Friday's decision may provide a clue as to when a case is so serious that the sport's own strafsystem is no longer sufficient.
- We will be following it with great interest. When Christian Poulsen (former fodboldlandsholdsspiller, red.) beat a player in the stomach, pondering whether there was prosecution. It didn't.
- Therefore, one can say that it is the very principle the case. The whole of the sporting world follows the with bated breath, what happens, say sportsjuristen Jens Bertel Rasmussen from Bertel Rasmussen Lawyers.
