Charlesp Sweden Interrogatee would be someone who is suspected of 15:33 Feb 7, 2017  committing a crime. def: "If someone, especially a police officer, interrogates someone, they question them thoroughly for a long time in order to get some information from them." Christopher Schröder United Kingdom 14:33 Feb 7, 2017  Interrogate sounds a bit like Nazi Germany... British police would interview a witness, hence we would say interviewee.

Note to reference poster Asker: Jo, men ikke alle udspurgte var deciderede vidner til hændelsen. Jeg har brugt witness, hvor jeg kunne, victim, hvor jeg kunne og må ellers bruge 'the subject being questioned' - kan du sætte det som svar, så jeg kan give dig points?
