A person has been requested to be detained on probable cause on suspicion of murder, attempted murder and aggravated arson in Alby earlier in March, according to the Prosecutor’s Office.
A woman in her 50s and a young woman died in connection with the apartment fire. Another three people were injured in the fire, which is being investigated as an attack. According to information in several media, the women have ties to a person who has connections to a gang conflict.
Confidential information
The suspect’s personal data is subject to confidentiality during both the detention hearing and a possible detention order, which is very unusual.
– The reason is that there is a danger that the suspect or someone close to him will be subjected to violence or suffer other serious problems if the information is disclosed. In the end, it is the district court that decides whether the secrecy shall apply or not, says chamber prosecutor Kajsa Lindberg.
