A young person has been detained and is under investigation for plans to commit murder in Skellefteå. The suspicions concern serious crimes, which led prosecutor Jennifer Piironen to request that the detainee be assigned a public defender.

The request was submitted on Saturday. Such a measure is taken when a prosecutor assesses that the suspect needs legal assistance to protect their rights in an ongoing criminal investigation.

The case is connected to Skellefteå, but since Lycksele district court was the duty court in Västerbotten during the weekend, it fell to them to consider the question of a defender, according to Norran.

What forms the basis for the murder suspicions, the detainee's age and gender, and whether more people are involved have not yet been made public.
