Norwegian authorities indicted a former security guard at the United States Embassy in Oslo on charges of espionage for Russia and Iran. The man, whose name has not been released, allegedly passed sensitive information to foreign handlers, according to Norway’s state broadcaster NRK.

Prosecutors claim he shared floor plans, security procedures and photos, along with details about embassy staff, visitors and their families. The man allegedly received payments in Bitcoin and euros.

The man, a Norwegian student in his 20s, was arrested in November 2024 after authorities alleged he passed information to Russian and Iranian handlers while working as a guard at the U.S. Embassy in Oslo.
