A man in his 60s has been arrested on suspicion of murder in Bollebygd municipality on Christmas Eve. He denies the crime.

The other man who was requested to be arrested was, however, released by the district court.

After the detention hearings, prosecutor Malin Melin stated that another man was arrested on Saturday, suspected of being involved in the murder.

Several people are said to have been at the scene, and he is one of them, she says to Göteborgs-Posten.

It was during the night leading up to Christmas Day that a person was found dead in a burning car in Bollebygd municipality.

The murdered person has not been fully identified yet, but Malin Melin says to the newspaper that the investigators believe they know who it is.
