Last week, a girl in her upper teens was found lifeless in a home. She was taken to hospital but her life could not be saved, writes Norrländska Socialdemokaten .

The preliminary suspicion from the police and prosecutors is that she died as a result of an overdose, prosecutor Jonas Fjellström tells the newspaper.

The arrested man, who is registered at the address where the girl was found, is believed to have supplied the girl with drugs. He has been questioned and denies any wrongdoing.

The prosecutor has not yet decided whether to request that the man be remanded in custody.
