The long-standing mystery of Anne-Elisabeth Hagen's disappearance is nearing a pivotal moment as Norway's Attorney General, Jørn Maurud, is set to announce a decision on Friday regarding charges against her husband, Tom Hagen.

Anne-Elisabeth vanished from her Lørenskog home on October 31, 2018, initially believed to be a kidnapping case.

However, police later shifted their focus to a murder investigation.

Despite being arrested in April 2020, Tom Hagen was released after 11 days and has consistently denied involvement.

The case, which has captivated public attention and inspired media adaptations, involves three other suspects, all of whom maintain their innocence.

The upcoming decision will determine whether charges will be filed or the case will be dismissed, marking a significant development in this high-profile investigation.
