– The accused has previously been reported to the police for sexual acts with children under 16, in 2019, writes police attorney Celin Hauge Andersen in the West police district in an SMS to NRK.
She writes that the case was investigated and the position of the evidence was dropped.
The man was arrested on Thursday last week, charged with raping a student under the age of 14 at the school where he is a teacher. On Saturday, the man was remanded in custody for four weeks.
On Monday, Andersen confirmed to VG that the man is also charged with sexual acts against children under the age of 16, but she will not go into how many victims there are in the case, other than that there is talk of more.
The man has admitted what he is charged with.
The police attorney writes to NRK on Tuesday morning that in light of the circumstances the man is now charged with, it is natural to look at the case from 2019 again.
