Dutch Joost Klein (Joost), who was disqualified from Eurovision just hours before the grand final in Malmö, may face charges of threats. The news was announced by the Swedish police. The 26-year-old, who was one of the favorites to win, was kicked out of the competition, something unprecedented in Eurovision's 68-year history, after one of the production members accused him of an incident backstage.
The Swedish police spokesman told the Guardian that the investigation has been completed and a decision on whether to press charges should be made within the next 2 weeks.
"We expect that there will probably be a criminal prosecution, the fight was not related to a more serious crime," the police officer in charge told Swedish media "SVT".
While according to the newspaper "Malmö Sydsvenska", the threat is usually punished with a fine.
Dutch broadcaster Avotros tried to shed light on the case by stating that the singer made a 'threatening gesture' towards a female cameraman, but added that he had not touched her at any time.
"Against the agreement that was made clear, Joost was filmed when he had just left the stage and had to rush to the green room. At the time, Just said several times that he did not want to be filmed. This was not respected," the Dutch media added as clarification.
But the choice was made and Klein was dismissed.
Organizers have not released more information about the incident during the contest, but have clarified that no other artist or member of any delegation was involved in the clash, as it was initially claimed that Klein had collided with a person from the Israeli delegation. .
