Details are sparse and we have calls in, but the two execs at Klarna, Jens Saltin and Niklas Adalberth, were charged with rape and attempted kidnapping at the W Hotel in New York. The victim was a 19-year-old tourist from Texas.
Saltin and Adalberth are currently out on $10,000 bail. According to the NY Post, “Adalberth allegedly straddled her body while he and Saltin ripped off her clothes and fondled her.”
Klarna is a Sequoia-backed start-up and was a runner-up for Best International Start-up at the Crunchies.
