Helgi Magnús

Helgi Magnús is a prominent Icelandic legal figure who has recently been in the news due to a decision by the Attorney General, Sigríður Friðjónsdóttir, to withhold all projects from him following concerns about his public comments. Despite a prior decision by the then Minister of Justice, Guðrún Hafsteinsdóttir, to retain him in office, Helgi's future remains uncertain as the Minister of Justice is considering transferring him to another position. At 61 years old, he faces the prospect of being appointed to the long-vacant role of Deputy Chief of Police, which would guarantee him full salary until he reaches retirement age.
