Terje Rød-Larsen, a notable figure, has recently been questioned by Norway's Økokrim (the Norwegian National Authority for Investigation and Prosecution of Economic and Environmental Crime). His lawyer, John Christian Elden, confirmed that Rød-Larsen provided a comprehensive explanation to Økokrim about the various matters addressed during the questioning. However, the allegations do not specify concrete actions which complicates the understanding of what he is suspected of exactly.

Elden emphasizes that despite the questioning, Rød-Larsen does not acknowledge any criminal guilt. He highlighted that Rød-Larsen elaborated on his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, including their interactions and financial dealings, which may have drawn the attention of Økokrim. This revelation hints at the broader implications of Rød-Larsen's connections and activities, especially concerning high-profile figures like Epstein that have been under scrutiny.

Additionally, Rød-Larsen has waived the confidentiality of his former lawyers related to a property purchase in Frogner, enabling them to speak freely to Økokrim during their upcoming interrogation. This decision indicates a move towards transparency in the proceedings, as it could potentially clarify aspects of the investigation surrounding him. Overall, Rød-Larsen's situation could have significant ramifications for his career and public perception, given the ongoing investigations into financial and ethical misconduct in Norway.
