Thorbjørn Jagland has been criminally charged after losing his diplomatic immunity.

Norway rocked by the new Jeffrey Epstein revelations.

The repercussions of the millions of new ‘Epstein Files’ released by the US DOJ have hit particularly hard in the Scandinavian Kingdom of Norway.

Besides the damaging information that arose over the Crown Princess Mette-Marit’s close ties to Jeffrey Epstein, now a Former Norwegian Prime Minister finds himself in a very serious situation.

Thorbjørn Jagland has been charged with ‘gross corruption’ over his ties with the late pedophile, according to Norwegian police.

BBC reported:

“The charge was brought after the Council of Europe lifted Jagland’s immunity, which he enjoyed because of his past diplomatic role. He denies criminal liability and is willing to cooperate, his lawyer says.”

Email correspondence discussing travel plans to an island, including potential visit dates and personal details about a birthday celebration.

Emails appear to show Jagland planning solo and family visits to Epstein’s homes in Paris, New York and Palm Beach, as well as the infamous ‘Pedophile Island’.

“Three of Jagland’s properties were searched by Norwegian crime unit Økokrim and he is now expected to be questioned.

As well as serving as prime minister from 1996 to 1997, Jagland is also a former head of the Norwegian Nobel Committee and spent a decade as secretary general of the Council of Europe.”

Jagland had his diplomatic immunity from heading the European Council revoked, on a request from Økokrim.

“The so-called Epstein files appear to show instances where the late financier covered the travel expenses to his properties for Jagland and his family. Jagland also faces allegations that he solicited Epstein’s help in obtaining a bank loan in another exchange, although it is not clear whether this materialized.”
