Tragedy in Sogndal: The Involuntary Manslaughter of Arve Beheim Karlsen
Victim(s): 1
Method: Involuntary Manslaughter, Murder?
The Arve Beheim Karlsen case refers to the racially motivated death of a 15-year-old Norwegian boy of mixed-race descent in 1999. Arve, who had been subjected to frequent racial harassment, was chased by a group of neo-Nazi youths in the town of Sogndal. In an attempt to escape, he jumped into the nearby river and tragically drowned. The case shocked the nation, drawing attention to the rise of racism and xenophobia in Norway. It sparked a national debate about racial intolerance and prompted calls for stronger actions against hate crimes and far-right extremism. The case remains a painful reminder of the consequences of racism and discrimination.
