Norwegian court to hear appeal of ex-industry chief's corruption conviction

Borgarting Court of Appeal will hear Stein Lier-Hansen's appeal against his May conviction for serious corruption and economic breach of trust, for which he received a five-year sentence and 10.5 million kroner compensation order. The appeal challenges both the corruption charge and parts of the breach-of-trust verdict. This is a routine appellate proceeding in a high-profile Norwegian corruption case, with no immediate market or geopolitical implications.
