Norwegian Crown Princess's son under investigation: more than 20 crimes, including rape

As reported by TUT.AZ with reference to The Guardian, Marius Borg Høiby, the eldest son of the Norwegian Crown Princess, has found himself at the center of a major scandal. According to police attorney Andreas Kruszewski, the young man is suspected of committing 23 different crimes, reports "European Truth".

Kruszewski noted that the investigation materials have already been handed over to prosecutors, who will make a decision on filing formal charges against Høiby.

Marius Borg Høiby has been under investigation since August 4, 2024, when he was detained on suspicion of attacking his girlfriend. This incident became the starting point for uncovering a whole series of possible offenses.

According to Kruszewski, among the suspicions is "one case of rape with sexual contact" and "two cases of rape without sexual contact".

In addition, the police representative stated that Høiby is suspected of "four cases of sexual assault, one case of abuse in a close relationship, two cases of causing bodily harm, one case of vandalism, one case of threats, five violations of a restraining order, one case of insulting a police officer, and five traffic violations".

Ellen Holager Andenæs, Høiby's lawyer, stated that her client categorically denies the three rape charges.

It is worth noting that in August, Høiby admitted to beating his girlfriend, explaining his actions as being under the influence of cocaine and alcohol, which led to his detention by police.
