Silence from the Police and Defense

The police and lawyers are keeping quiet. The Oslo Police Headquarters confirmed the ongoing investigation but did not provide any details. Marius Borg Høiby's lawyers are also not commenting on the proceedings. The same applies to the lawyer of a potential victim.

Moving Away from the Royal Family's Circle

The timing of the search is attracting additional attention: Marius Borg Høiby had moved out of the royal family's circle just a few weeks prior and moved into the apartment in Frogner. This is the first time he is living independently from the palace grounds.

Burden on the Monarchy

The case also continues to put pressure on the Norwegian royal family. Although Marius Borg Høiby does not have a noble title and no official duties, his mother Crown Princess Mette-Marit and Crown Prince Haakon are repeatedly in the spotlight. Whether the Crown Prince couple had been informed about the search is unclear. The palace is not commenting.

One thing is clear: Even before the trial has started, the case continues to gain sensitivity.
