A man in his 60s has been detained, reasonably suspected of a murder of a man in his 40s in Karlstad this summer, writes NWT.

The murder suspect is described as a high-ranking member of the criminal motorcycle club Hells Angels. Another man is also suspected in the investigation, of serious protection of a criminal.

Both men deny the crime, according to their respective defenders to NWT.

It was on July 13 that the murdered man was found lifeless on a street in central Karlstad.
