The man, who is known to the police from before and is in his 50s, was arrested by the police in Umeå on Saturday, which vk.se was the first to tell about, and is now arrested on probable cause, suspected of buying sexual services and rape.
– We got hold of him yesterday and were able to arrest him and have now carried out supplementary interrogations with him where his lawyer was present, says Mats Bruhn, on-call preliminary investigation manager at the police.
The man is arrested on probable cause for the suspected crimes. A decision on whether or not he should be detained will be made no later than Tuesday at 12 noon.
