OSLO (Reuters) - Norway's opposition Christian Democrats expressed no-confidence in the country's justice minister after a party meeting on Monday, raising the risk that the minority centre-right government will collapse.

Five centre-left parties last week said they would vote on Tuesday to oust Justice Minister Sylvi Listhaug, leaving her fate in the hands of the Christian Democrats, who hold the balance of power.
