The prosecutor presented his own punishment request earlier on Wednesday. The prosecutor demands a prison sentence of seven years and seven months for Marius. 63 days have been deducted from the required imprisonment, as Marius has been imprisoned several times already.
In addition, the prosecutor demands that the driver’s license be denied, the devices be confiscated, and that Marius be prevented from contacting the Frogner woman for two years.

According to VG, it can take months before the verdict is read. The final verdict will be decided by the judges.
According to VG, Marius can be required to pay compensation even if he were to be acquitted of criminal charges, as the legal processes for damages and criminal convictions are different.
