It was in July this year that the child itself sounded the alarm about the incident, which occurred in Karlstad. According to the indictment, the woman should have taken a stranglehold around the child's neck twice, which, among other things, led to the child bleeding from the ears.

The woman, who has been detained since July, denies the crime.

A so-called section 7 investigation has previously shown that it can be suspected that the woman suffered from a serious mental disorder at the time, reported NWT in August.
