A video on Marius’ cell phone that would support the allegations “The reason we are asking for two weeks in prison is because last night and this morning we discovered another violation. It was found in the material of the investigation,” police prosecutor Andreas Kruszewski said Wednesday morning.
The judge partially accepted the request and Marius’s lawyer, Øyvind Bratlien, spoke upon learning of the decision: “The court should have been more strict, but it shows that the court is critical of what was presented. One week is too long. We consider it promising. . Furthermore, he announced that he would consider the option of appealing it tomorrow, since his client pleaded not guilty: “Both charges are a catastrophic error of judgment on the part of the prosecutor.”

Other evidence in the case bears that out. So no charges should have been filed.” “The system is fundamentally biased in favor of the prosecution,” the lawyer asserted. Defense lawyers are under a duty of confidentiality and have no effective remedy,” he added.
Police are now investigating two alleged rapes of Marius Borg Hoiby, in addition to earlier allegations of domestic violence, threats and failure to comply with a restraining order. In total, there are six accused persons in the criminal case against the son of Mette-Merit in Norway, and two of them are his ex-girlfriends: Nora Hockland, with whom he was in the summer of 2022 to 2023, and Julian Snekestad, his partner between 2018 and 2022. Their first lawyer, John Christian Elden, said of the progress of the case: “It is the police who manage the need for prison during the investigation, but we note that the court case has found strong enough suspicion that the police can succeed.
