Son of Norway’s future Queen charged with four counts of rape | Royal | News

Norwegian Prince Marius Borg Hoiby was accused of four points of rape and can be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison. Crown Princess Mette-Marit’s 28-year-old son and the heir of the throne Prince Haakon’s step son came to court on Monday. After a long investigation, the Royal Family of the Norwegian was accused of 32 censuses, including rape, abuse in a close relationship against an old partner, and violence against the other, death threats and traffic violations.

Hoiby is allegedly attacked women while sleeping. Currently, the free hearing and Oslo State lawyer Sturla Henriksbo said that there is no reason to arrest him and imprison him right now. The prosecutors’ office reported that Norway’s public publisher NRK reported that the trial may begin in mid -January and may last for about six weeks.

Henriksbo, “This case is very serious. Rape and violence in close relationships are very serious actions that can leave permanent traces and destroy lives.

“Marius Borg Hoiby’s being a member of the royal family of the royal family, of course, should not mean that similar actions should be treated lighter or heavier than others.”

Inspectors, short messages, witness statements and findings of police searches are reported to be evidence.

CBS cooperated with the police during questioning that Hoiby was arrested for preliminary charges of rape, violence and criminal damage last year.

The defense team said that he took the charges seriously, but in most cases he did not accept those related to sexual abuse and violence.

The Royal Palace said that it is connected to the courts and that it is nothing to add beyond that.
