Man suspected of murder in Oslo also charged with Facebook threat against young MDG politician

A 27-year-old man held in custody, suspected of murder in Ammerud in Oslo, is additionally charged with writing a threatening message directed at MDG politician Frøya Skjold Sjursæther (19) on Facebook. This is reported by ba.no.

In the comments section of a BT article on Facebook, the man allegedly wrote in May 2025 that he "hopes someone beats the shit out of frøya at the school leavers' party", according to the charge. At that time, Sjursæther was a school leaver.

For this, he is charged with intimidating and reckless conduct. The charge also includes two separate instances in which he allegedly threatened and was abusive towards police last year.

The murder case concerns a man in his 40s who was found dead in a flat in the Ammerud district over the weekend. TV 2 was first to report the connection between the two counts of the charge.

In 2025, Sjursæther was elected as a Storting representative for Hordaland and is described as Norway's youngest Storting representative. Since her school leaving year, she has moved to Oslo to work full-time as a politician for the MDG.

BT reported the threatening Facebook message earlier, when the party reported the matter. At that time, Sjursæther said:

– One of the first things you learn as a young, female politician from the MDG is not to read the comments section.

Ba.no has put questions about the charge to Sjursæther. In a text message, she replies:

– I experience it as correct that it is the police and prosecuting authorities who provide any comments on this matter, and not me.

The man's defence counsel has no comment on the matter.

The main hearing in the threat case is scheduled for Follo and Nordre Østfold district court in August.
