Doctor remanded in custody following suspected murder preparations in Stockholm
A female doctor was remanded in custody at Solna District Court on Thursday, suspected on probable grounds of two counts of preparing to commit murder, according to mitti.se.
The suspected crimes are believed to have been committed between 3 and 4 October in Stockholm. The woman was arrested during the night leading to Monday and taken into custody later the same morning, according to information from Expressen.
At the remand hearing, the woman denied all criminal allegations and opposed the prosecutor's request for remand in custody. The district court decided nevertheless to remand her in custody. One of the reasons is the risk that she may be able to remove evidence or otherwise obstruct the ongoing investigation. The prosecutor has also been granted permission to decide on restrictions for the remanded person.
The public documents do not clarify how the woman is suspected of preparing the crimes or who the intended victims are. Charges are to be brought by 22 October at the latest.
