Marius Borg Høiby Faces Expanded Charges

Published: 2024-09-15

Marius Borg Høiby, son of Norway's Crown Princess, is facing expanded charges involving four alleged victims.

Initially arrested for domestic abuse, the charges now include reckless behavior, threats, and violation of a restraining order.

Høiby was apprehended at a cabin in Gausdal but released shortly after.

His lawyer, Øyvind Bratlien, criticizes the arrest, claiming the grounds are weak.

Despite his release, the case has intensified, with police citing a high risk of recurrence as justification for their actions.

The situation has drawn significant public attention, partly due to Høiby's royal connections.
