Both the 21-year-old woman who was sentenced to 16 years in prison for Tove’s murder and Tove’s family appealed the Court of Appeal’s verdict. The convict wanted to be acquitted, while the relatives wanted the Supreme Court to determine the penalty of life imprisonment.
The Supreme Court writes that in order for the Supreme Court to hear an appeal, there must be a need for HD to provide answers to ambiguities in the legislation or how it should be applied in certain typical cases.
The Supreme Court has reviewed the material in the case and concluded that there is no reason to issue leave to appeal. The Supreme Court’s decision means that the case is not taken up for consideration. The judgment of the Court of Appeal thus stands.
