Former Norwegian PM Jagland Hospitalized After Suicide Attempt Amid Epstein Corruption Probe

Thorbjørn Jagland was charged with aggravated corruption linked to Epstein, facing up to 10 years in prison while hospitalized after a suicide attempt, authorities said.

  • Last week, Thorbjørn Jagland, former Prime Minister of Norway, was hospitalised after a failed suicide attempt and is reported in critical condition while under medical care.
  • US Department of Justice documents show Norwegian authorities opened a corruption probe linking Jagland to Jeffrey Epstein, focusing on 2011–2018 and prompting police raids earlier this month.
  • Emails and US DOJ files reveal planned visits to Epstein's residences in Paris, New York, and Palm Beach, with expenses paid for Jagland and his family between 2011 and 2018, including a 2014 stay involving his wife, two children, and his son's girlfriend.
  • His lawyer, Anders Brosveet, stated that `He denies criminal liability and is willing to cooperate` after authorities charged Jagland with aggravated corruption, which carries up to 10 years in prison.
  • The Council of Europe waived his diplomatic immunity, prompting external inquiries by the Norwegian parliament and scrutiny of CEO Børge Brende amid limited coverage after the Norwegian Editors' Association agreement and Faytuks Network publication.
