The search for “a unison truth is impossible”, says Martin Ingebrigtsen and points out that Gjert Ingebrigtsen is the father of seven children. Both TV 2 and VG published an article on Friday evening written by the Ingebrigtsen brother. On Thursday, the brothers Jakob, Filip and Henrik went to VG. They told there about a father who had used physical violence and threats as part of his upbringing, and wrote that they still feel discomfort and fear. – The statements they make are baseless. I have never used violence against my children, said Gjert Ingebrigtsen through lawyer John Christian Elden. Now his brother Martin Ingebrigtsen also wanted to speak. – After all, we grew up under a sagged roof. Martin starts the post by saying that he has long chosen to “sit quietly in the boat”, but that he now feels that he must tell about his experience. – I have never feared dad, he writes in the post reproduced by the media. – But when my experience of the family home differs so widely from my brothers’ experience, I believe it is right and fair that the matter is illuminated from several sides. After all, we have grown up under the same roof, he writes further. news has tried to get a comment from the press contact for Jakob, Filip and Henrik, Espen Skoland, but has so far not received a reply. news has also tried to get a comment from Gjert Ingebrigtsen via the press contact of his lawyer John Christian Elden. This has happened in the Ingebrigtsen conflict, from golden smiles, reality shows and jubilation, to family quarrels and accusations of violence. Here is the timeline of the Ingebrigtsen conflict. It became known that the running brothers Jakob, Filip and Henrik Ingebrigtsen had broken off their collaboration with dad and coach Gjert Ingebrigtsen. Jakob Ingebrigtsen commented on the break with his coach father. – Some things don’t last forever, he commented after the first race without Gjert. A month and a half after the news of the break-up, Henrik Ingebrigtsen opened up a little more and said that “after so many years it didn’t work anymore”. At the same time, he asked Gjert to step more into the role of father than into the role of coach. Just over a week later, Gjert also broke his silence. – We knew that this wear and tear in the family would sooner or later strike. It has been tough, said Gjert Ingebrigtsen to news. Gjert continued to train Narve Gilje Nordås and Per Svela. He was therefore present during the EC in Munich in the summer of 2022, where he stated that it was special to be in a championship without accompanying his own children. The following six months Gjert student Nordås and the Ingebrigtsen brothers were at the same training camp. Then there was an episode that only became known in the autumn. Henrik Ingebrigtsen expressed that Nordås could not sit at the same table as him, and the association had to introduce measures. Only months after the episode between Henrik Ingebrigtsen and Narve Gilje Nordås, the parties were again at the same training session. The atmosphere must have been bad there too, according to the latter. Late in 2023, the conflict escalated in the public eye, when it became known that Gjert did not receive accreditation for the WC in Budapest. – It has been decided in a meeting today that he will not receive one of the coaching accreditations, based on an overall assessment, said Erlend Slokvik, head of sport in the Norwegian Athletics Federation, to news. The championship was characterized by noise and war of words, and the ice front between Jakob and Gjert student Nordås became very visible. A month after the WC, Nordås spoke out about the WC row and the argument with the Ingebrigtsen brothers. – I hope that people can travel around for conventions and championships to live under the same roof without it being so uncomfortable and tense, so that you almost can’t even be in the same arena, he said. news revealed the aforementioned episode about the incident between Henrik Ingebrigtsen and Narve Gilje Nordås at a training camp. On the same day, the Norwegian Athletics Federation announced that Gjert will not be accredited for the championships in 2024 either. Knut Jæger Hansen went out on news and described Henrik Ingebrigtsen’s behavior as “bullying and harassment”. The Ingebrigtsen brothers wrote a column in VG in which they opened up about the background for the protracted conflict. They described the father as violent and controlling. On the same day, lawyer John Christian Elden rejected all claims on behalf of Gjert. A short time later, the Norwegian Athletics Association made a statement: – The Norwegian Athletics Association’s intention is to provide safe surroundings and a healthy performance environment for our athletes, coaches, managers and people in the support apparatus. Based on Jakob, Filip and Henrik’s statements today, we will take responsibility for intensifying this work, parts of it read. – Based on the information that came to light through the media yesterday, it is natural for the police to investigate whether there is reasonable reason to initiate an investigation,” police inspector Terese Braut Våge told news the day after the brothers’ chronicle. – Yes, that is the plan, Narve Gilje Nordås said when asked by TV 2 whether he intended to continue with Gjert Ingebrigtsen as coach. In an article published in TV 2 and VG, the brother of Jakob, Filip and Henrik, Martin Ingebrigtsen, says that he “has never feared dad”. Show more The police will investigate the allegations After Jakob, Filip and Henrik told their version in the VG chronicle Thursday, the case has been written about in countless Norwegian and foreign media. Both English, Spanish, French, German and Polish media have written about the brothers’ statements. On Friday, the police also issued a statement, in which they say that they will investigate whether there is reasonable ground to initiate an investigation into the claims the Ingebrigtsen brothers have made about their father. It is not unnatural, believes Gjert Ingebrigtsen’s lawyer Elden. – Given the brothers’ claims in the media, it is not unnatural for the police to investigate whether there are reasonable grounds to initiate an investigation. That’s their job. At the same time, my client is clear that he has never been violent towards his children, Elden writes to news on Friday.
