Marius Borg Hoeby, who has filed various charges against six victims since last August, was released on November 27 after a week in preventive detention after Oslo police searched his mobile phone for evidence in at least two rape-abuse cases involving his current partner (the only allegation he admitted) and two of his previous girlfriends accused him. Since that day, when the judge released him on the grounds that there was no longer any risk of destroying the evidence, the whereabouts of the son of Princess Mette-Merit of Norway has remained a mystery. now His lawyer has confirmed that he is undergoing the rehab treatment he himself said he needed five months ago.
While Norway’s Royal Palace and Prince Haakon and Mette-Merit themselves remain silent, Marius’ defense lawyer, Eivind Bratlien, confirmed to the media Aftenposten That is being treated by Marius Borg. “Haibi went straight to rehab after his release. He is still undergoing treatment. He is determined to continue despite the demands. Other than that, I am not going to say anything more about it now,” the lawyer explained without confirming. The Norwegian press suspects that the place chosen for the resettlement is London, a city where the princes visited a few weeks ago on a private visit, and that it will be possible, as the police confirmed, because there is nothing to prevent. It leaves the country.

What the lawyer affirmed was that the family, iePrincess Haakon and Mette-Merit fully support him in this process; Something that emerged from the Norwegian heir’s brief statement about a case that has gripped the country and tarnished the head of state’s image. “As a family and as parents, we wanted Marius to get help and we’ve been working for a long time to get him to a place where he can get more help. It’s something that we prioritize a lot. It’s certainly within the framework established by the legal system. will be done in”, announced Prince Haakon when he learned that the charges against Marius had been expanded to include two possible rapes.

Ten days after the incident, Marius Borg, in a statement written in the first person and shared by his lawyer, acknowledged the events that had occurred, apologized for them (to his girlfriend and his family), and attributed it to mental health issues. Over the years, as well as addiction to alcohol and cocaine. So, in that statement, he promised to get help and get treatment, but after that, everything got worse.
The princess’s son was accused of abusive behavior and violence by two of his previous associates, Julian Snekestad and Nora Haukeland, and a second arrest for breaching a restraining order. By then, the Norwegian press had already discovered Marius Borg’s acts, customs and friendships which, although they were not illegal, abused a certain impunity for the princess’s son to be part of the king’s family.

The princess, who had a son before marrying the heir, placed people in public housing who faced serious charges or had a history of drug trafficking. Furthermore, in the process, previous police conversations with him emerge, warning him that the consequences for the royal family’s image could be dire if he continues in this dynamic, to which suggestion Marius reacts by feeling untouchable. “The press is not allowed to write about it,” he responded.

For this reason, he was requested to be detained for a week.

Although Marius Borg is not part of this institution nor has he ever held an official role within the Norwegian royal family, he has lived as part of it since the age of four, which implies a privilege, but without which the chief representatives of the state have their obligations. On the other hand, as far as Haakon and Mette-Merit are concerned, it is undeniable that their image has been affected in recent months, due to the banners and chants related to this issue at the last football match. They came in part because of this decline in popularity due to various episodes leaked to the country’s press, the most scandalous being the notification to the princess that her son would be arrested, something that raised many doubts about possible favorable treatment. Or even about the possibility that it provides for the destruction of evidence.
