The 27-year-old son of Norway\u2019s crown princess has been accused of a second rape just days after he was arrested on suspicion of the same offense. <\/p>\n
Following a detention hearing at Oslo District Court on Wednesday for the first alleged offense, police prosecutor Andreas Kruszewski said Oslo Police District had requested that Marius Borg H\u00f8iby be held in custody for two weeks as a second alleged rape had come to light. <\/p>\n
Police said they are investigating the second alleged incident thoroughly. <\/p>\n
\u201cThe case involves sexual activity, not intercourse, with a woman who was incapable of resisting the act. This means that we are now investigating two rape cases involving Marius Borg H\u00f8iby,\u201d the police added. <\/p>\n
A sexual assault of this kind carries a maximum prison term of 10 years, according to Norway\u2019s penal code. <\/p>\n
\u201cFor the other circumstances, he does not admit criminal guilt,\u201d Bratlien said. <\/p>\n
H\u00f8iby was first arrested on Monday night on suspicion of breaking the law relating to \u201csexual intercourse with someone who is unconscious or for other reasons is unable to resist the act,\u201d police said Tuesday. <\/p>\n
They specified at the time that this accusation involved carrying out a \u201csexual act without intercourse\u201d on a victim \u201csaid to have been unable to resist the act.\u201d <\/p>\n
Norway\u2019s Crown Prince Haakon told the country\u2019s public broadcaster, NRK, that the situation is affecting everyone around H\u00f8iby. \u201cThese are serious accusations that Marius is now facing. Today, we are of course thinking of all those affected,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n
He added that the police and the judicial system must be given room to do their job. \u201cI trust that they will do that in a good way,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n
H\u00f8iby was born before his mother, Mette-Marit, married Crown Prince Haakon and became a princess in 2001. He is outside Norway\u2019s line of royal succession. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
