Norway has launched a probe into 11 senior officials over links to the US Epstein files, according to Al Jazeera.
The investigation is examining more than $13 million in state grants connected to Jeffrey Epstein and top Norwegian ministers.
Scope of the inquiry
The scale of the probe, covering 11 senior officials and a significant sum in state grants, suggests Norwegian authorities are treating the matter as a serious potential governance issue.
The available reporting did not specify which ministries or grant programs are involved, nor the exact nature of the alleged links between the grants and Epstein.
Investigations tied to Epstein's network have periodically drawn in officials and institutions in multiple countries in recent years, as authorities have continued to examine his financial dealings and associations.
Norwegian officials have not been quoted directly in the available reporting responding to the launch of the probe.
