The man is detained on probable cause suspected of murdering his girlfriend in Skultuna, attempted murder of his ex-wife in Västerås, and child abuse since three children were present at the scene. The incident occurred on Friday morning.
The man participated in the hearing via a link from the hospital where he is receiving treatment.
My client can neither acknowledge nor deny the crime, says Maria Wilhelmsson, defense attorney, to SVT News.
The suspect will now undergo a so-called paragraph 7-examination – a minor mental examination.
At an earlier detention hearing on Monday, he could not attend due to his injuries.
