"As soon as possible, we will review the claims and accusations and respond to them. It has also emerged that there is reason to further investigate the authenticity of the material that has been presented," lawyer Sigurd Klomsæt tells NTB.
Emails show that Thorbjørn Jagland was in contact with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and discussed a family trip to his Caribbean island. Jagland has denied that the trip took place.
At the time, Jagland was chairman of the Nobel Committee. He has served as Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of Norway, as well as Secretary General of the Council of Europe.
