Short version
- Norwegian woman accused of killing husband in Spain.
- Police believe a knife and a Japanese sword were used in the fight.
- The woman claims the murder occurred in an emergency while she was defending herself.
- The case is still under investigation, and the woman has not been released due to the risk of flight.
Since August 3, the Norwegian woman has been charged with murder in Spain. The woman still believes the murder took place during a state of emergency.
According to VG information, there was blood in several rooms when the police arrived. There was also chaos and disorder in the house.
When police arrived at the home, they found the woman with her three minor children.
He must have tried to defend himself.
The man was reportedly dead when police arrived, and forensic pathologists found a total of 14 knife wounds on the body linked to the murder, according to VG Information.
VG previously wrote that Spanish forensics believe the man tried to defend himself.
The woman called an ambulance and spoke to them several times before they arrived, according to VG information.
Here it is said that she told what was supposed to happen.
The first interpretation of women
According to her explanation, the man must have started beating her, and then she pulled out a knife. Police believe the murder weapon was a black knife, according to VG information.
A curved Japanese sword, a katana, is then said to have been found, which was said to have been lying under the bed in the room where the man was found.
They will then have to fight each other.
According to VG information, the woman informed the health service that she needed an ambulance, and the operator asked her if she thought he was dead. She replied that he was bleeding a lot andHe didn't move.
The ambulance and the woman spoke twice more, and the woman is said to have said that the police and ambulance needed to come as soon as possible, because she feared for her life if her husband woke up.
The legal aid attorney for the deceased man's survivors, John Christian Elden, tells VG that it is doubtful that there will be an emergency guardian as long as the woman is charged with murder:
– This is also only the woman's explanation, and she killed the person who could have provided an alternative explanation. We note that the police do not believe that she was attacked in any way.
The woman's advocate, Juan Sánchez Otharan, told VG that he is responding to the Spanish police using the woman's spontaneous statements as grounds for detention.
– It was clear that there had been a quarrel between the two, and that the woman had lived a violent relationship, he said.
The defender is also concerned that the woman also suffered what he describes as defensive injuries.
Elden says the technical evidence appears to indicate that the deceased was subjected to a widespread and prolonged attack with a series of stab wounds, which he survived:
– In addition, it is difficult to draw any conclusions from the results. Elden concludes that women's interpretation changes, and my clients pay only limited attention to it.
The woman also allegedly suffered multiple wounds, including a deep cut on her arm, multiple cuts on her arms and palm, and multiple cuts to the corner of her mouth. The woman was then taken to the hospital where she underwent surgery.
At the hospital, the woman reportedly told of violence in the marriage over time, that the violence had escalated in the days leading up to the incident, and that the man had threatened her and her children.
Elden says this is also based on her claims, which have not yet been supported by the investigation.
Krimpodden from VG made a separate episode about the murder:
No parole
The woman had requested last week to be released from detention, but her request was denied.
The Spanish authorities justified the refusal by saying that they believed there was a risk that the woman might escape.
