The missing woman was last seen in a boat in a marina in Norrköping on July 31. During the fall and winter, several search efforts have been made for the woman. Now the police are further expanding the search area.
– During questioning, we have received new information about different people. This has led to new places that become interesting to take a closer look, says prosecutor Thomas Ramstedt.
Findings during the investigation have also led to the prosecutor no longer believing that the woman is alive – and since two weeks ago a man is suspected of murder.
Connections to Västmanland
The man suspected of murder has previously had a relationship with the missing woman. They both come from Västmanland and have lived there for a long time. About a year before the disappearance, they moved to Norrköping.
Two more people are detained for involvement in the disappearance. It is the murder suspected man’s wife and brother. Last week, they were arrested in Norrköping District Court for serious grave crime and the protection of criminals.
– What is happening now is that interrogations are held with different people. It is going on intensively and will last for another time to come. There are several investigative measures that remain to be taken, says Thomas Ramstedt.
Further a person is suspected of involvement, but that person is not detained.
