Police Search Marius Borg Høiby’s Oslo Apartment as New Inquiries Shadow Upcoming Trial

Prosecutors say investigations extend beyond the 32-count indictment after judges authorized a fresh evidence hunt at his Frogner home.

Overview

  • The court-approved search occurred shortly before Christmas to secure material for additional cases not included in the current indictment.
  • Authorities have described one of the new investigative threads as serious, and reporting says Høiby and a potential complainant were questioned.
  • A prosecutor confirmed to NTB that the investigations remain active, while Oslo police and Høiby’s defense team declined to comment.
  • The Oslo trial is scheduled for February 3 on 32 counts, including four alleged rapes tied to incidents reported between 2018 and 2024.
  • Høiby recently moved to Frogner near an ex-partner who previously reported assault, with separate reports noting alleged breaches of a contact order under police review.
