Russian Andrey Medvedev, a former member of the Wagner Group, is in police custody in Norway after seeking asylum from Russia. He is accused of entering the country illegally.
Medvedev's Norwegian lawyer, Brynjulf Risnes, insisted on broadcaster NRK that his client is not suspected of any offense and that he's unaccustomed to Norway's new, stricter security measures.
"Significant security measures have been introduced. Medvedev has problems adapting to them," Risnes told NRK.
Medvedev, who says he fears for his life, is believed to have illegally entered Norway after crossing the country's 123-mile border with Russia earlier this month.
