I'm a little perturbed by the compensation issue. If someone robs your house or mugs you/beats you up whatever in Norway, can you get compensation this easily? Why compensation for alleged rape? It brings in a motive or financial incentive to go screaming to the law 'rape!' at any time! Does it give her 'payment' for the alleged incident? I can see a case for punishment (if a crime was committed), but this large payment introduces other unpleasant factors.
