The woman was found severely injured outdoors in a forest area near a multi-family house and she died on the spot. According to the police, a sharp object was used, but otherwise they are tight-lipped about the arrest of the now detained man.
I arrested a person yesterday at 21:00, who on probable grounds is suspected of this murder, says prosecutor and investigation leader Peter Claeson.
The alarm came in at 23:00 on Sunday. According to the police, the woman was talking on the phone when she was attacked and it was the person on the line who alerted.
The detained man is believed to suffer from a serious psychiatric disorder and has received psychiatric compulsory care several times, according to documents that Aftonbladet has taken part of. He was discharged last in 2022. The investigation leader is tight-lipped about the information.
I cannot comment on anything at all, I can neither confirm nor deny it, says Peter Claeson.
