A woman in her 90s was found dead on her balcony.

The balcony door was locked from the inside and the police therefore started a murder investigation.

Now new eerie details have emerged about the mysterious death.

A neighbor discovered yesterday that there was a dead woman on the balcony next door in an apartment building in Trollhättan.

The neighbor then alerted the police, who drove to the address.

– It first came as an alarm about cardiac arrest, but it turned out that this woman on the balcony had been there for a long time, said Thomas Fuxborg, press spokesperson for the police in the western region yesterday.

“Layed there for several weeks”

The woman, who was over 90 years old, had been lying dead on the balcony for a long time, the police said.

A doctor came to the scene later in the day and pronounced the woman dead.

– We appreciate that the body has been there for several weeks.

A circumstance that puzzled the police, who were on the spot in the apartment, was that the balcony door was locked from the inside.

The front door to the apartment must also have been locked, according to information to Aftonbladet.

– We have therefore started a preliminary investigation regarding murder or manslaughter, due to the fact that the balcony door was locked, Thomas Fuxborg said yesterday.

Now more mysterious details have emerged in the case.

According to information given to Aftonbladet, the body must have been severely decomposed, but despite this, it must have been established that the woman had injuries to her face.

She must also have been carelessly dressed.

According to Aftonbladet’s experience, it must have looked as if someone dressed her stressed.

The police forensics technician was on site in the apartment and on the balcony in Trollhättan yesterday.

It is currently unclear whether they managed to secure any tracks.

The homicide investigators will now await the forensic investigation.
