🤥 Lying

In a significant development in an ongoing stalking trial, Iris Helga Jónatansdóttir has admitted to fabricating a rape accusation and has been arrested on suspicion of stalking in an unrelated case.

On the political front, Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir has rejected calls to postpone the implementation of tolls on the popular Golden Circle tourist route. Meanwhile, a more personal story has emerged regarding the President's niece, who reportedly knows a secret about the President she would prefer to forget.
