A 55-year-old man has been detained on probable cause suspected of murdering a woman in Hällefors in Örebro county.
My client denies the crime, says the man's lawyer Soren Abbaszadeh.
On Sunday, a 50-year-old woman was found dead in a forest area. The man was arrested the same day.
When the suspected murder took place is unclear. According to the prosecutor's detention application, it is believed to have occurred at some point between Thursday and Sunday last week.
