Norway's minister of justice, Wara less

Together with prime minister Erna Solberg called Tor Mikkel Wara to the press conference on Thursday. The news: To the minister of justice departs.

– Tor Mikkel called me and asked me to resign as government minister, explains the prime minister.

the Wara itself does not go into detail on the reasons for his resignation, but says:

" I understand that you have many questions. There will come a time when I am going to reply, but the time is not now.

he explained that ' someone needs me more than the government”, an apparent reference to his partner.

The now former minister of justice has given its name to the recent biggest political scandal in Norway, Wara-deal, a series of events in which the most dramatic was that the now-retiring attorney general's car was set on fire – something that Waras partner is suspected to be responsible for. Two weeks ago was arrested by the police.

On Thursday, also explained to the Norwegian security police that the woman is suspected of all the threats and attacks as Wara and his family have been subjected to since december last year that the family's car set on fire on 10 march.

To the rest of the events, according to NRK seven pieces in addition to bilbranden, hear the scribbles around the family house, threatening letters and a fire in a garbage can. The reason for the crimes is believed to be a desire to get the threat to the Wara to appear more serious than they in fact have been.
