A man in his 30s who was detained as a suspect in the burglary is now also suspected of aggravated manslaughter, reports Hallandsposten.
The suspect was arrested in the 94-year-old’s home immediately after the break-in and was later detained for extremely serious assault, serious breach of domestic peace and breach of the Knife Act.
As long as the autopsy report is not ready, it is not possible to say for sure whether the death was caused by the beating, but the district court has concluded after a remand hearing that the man is suspected of having caused the 94-year-old’s death.
