□■ PREFACE
This blog is written about a Norwegian guy called Åsmund Skuterud (Global Oslo Music, Koeju, Jazz in Khartoum) to expose his risky behaviors to the current / future victims and help the survivors. Åsmund Skuterud has hidden all the information to mislead the victims to keep the exploitative relationship with him and pushed them to engage in risky sexual intercourse by deception and coercion. His action leaded to a serious invasion of autonomy or control of the female body people's life, that is considered as a date violence and also a rape. Additionally, he abused teenagers sexually and has committed a statutory rape.
His long-term enablers Simon Matthew Valentine (aka Simon Matthew Jones-Tyridal), Kjetil Jerve, Oddrun Lilja, Safaa Al Saadi, Sidiki Camara and Wei Ting Zeng (aka Wei Ting Tseng), people in Oslo Jazz scene, Global Oslo Music (Malika Makouf Rasmussen), Khartoum Contemporary Art Center (Cassius Fadlabi and Karin Erixon), Music Marketing Method (Laverne Wyatt), and Mr. Skuterud's friends came to us saying that this is "a harassment and bullying" and have been trying to hide the fact, even though we are providing a very detailed story with evidence to prove Mr. Skuterud's crime and this is the only way that the victims in different countries can speak out.
This is one of the reasons why the survivors don't want to tell their experience to the public. However, we have many courageous people who have tried to support us. We really appreciate them.
This blog will be kept until he admits what he has done and gives a proper apology to all the victims.We are still waiting for Åsmund Skuterud and his enablers(mainly Simon Matthew Valentine, Kjetil Jerve and Wei Ting Zeng, Global Oslo Music, and Khartoum Contemporary Art Center in Oslo)' apology for the following inadequate behaviors:
□■ SUMMARY
Part 1: The Original Observation
This is a record of the one-year participant observation about Åsmund Skuterud (Koèju) in the period September 2015-October 2016. The purpose of this study is to understand the subject by interacting with him and observing his words and behaviors. It will be written by describing some main events and adding participant's interpretation. The study revealed that Mr. Skuterud's gender violence, date rapes and a statutory rape in various countries.
The limitation of complete participant observation study exists, however, the study achieved a certain level of 'objectivity' by nine survivors' active testimonials. To the original research for one year, the extra data obtained from the interviews with the people involved has been added as a process of cross-checking. Also, the researcher tried to have conversation with Åsmund Skuterud four times and he has not tried to show any evidence that can deny the contents of this blog until the present moment. In the beginning the author was collecting the information about the situation, interviewing the people involved with Åsmund Skuterud for one month (October 13-November 14, 2016). Later, his additional reaction data has been added since November 2016, as a post-observational report.

This is the author's personal medical record that proves the transmission of HPV by Åsmund Skuterud and the evidence about his risky/irresponsible behaviors as a supportive data for the original observation. Until now we have four victims with high risk HPV (type 16, 52, 66) diagnosis and one of them is in CIN1 status.
Part 2. External Evidence from Our Readers
After publishing the one-year observation on this blog in October 2016, some people contacted us telling they had evidence to prove it. And the first thank-you message from a Taiwanese reader arrived. It says "There would be no more girls suffering from deception, fears of disease, and disbelief in humanity".
One week later since the first thank-you message was published, a Vietnamese girl, who had met Åsmund Skuterud (Koèju) twice, contacted us. However, the person mentioned an information that the author had never given to her and also changed her attitude suddenly during the conversation. Her reaction showed clearly Asmund Skuterud's intervention. Later, the individual agreed with the interpretation in April 2017.
In January and February 2017, several people who were involved with Åsmund Skuterud contacted us. In February 2017, the author went to meet one of his teenager victims in person. All conversation was legally recorded.
