For the first time, Aftenposten reveals details of what transpired when the police contacted the Lofoten woman regarding her case. Shockingly, she was unaware that she had been a victim of rape until police informed her, which led to a significant emotional impact, including sleep problems that persisted without her understanding the cause. It has been reported that she tried to repress the memories of the event, illustrating the complexity of her psychological state following the assault.

Today, the victim will testify in court against Marius Borg Høiby, who is facing charges for raping her, a relationship characterized by her alleged inability to consent at the time of the incident. The testimony is critical in the ongoing legal proceedings, as it relates to the most severe aspect of the charges against Høiby, who is now 29 years old. Her account is expected to shed light on the nature of the assault and the emotional turmoil she has experienced since.

This case has garnered public attention in Norway, raising discussions about issues of consent and the serious ramifications of sexual violence. As the testimonies unfold, they highlight the challenges victims face in processing their trauma and the importance of legal proceedings in seeking justice for such crimes.
